We are proud to announce that we’ve just achieved the CHAS (Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme) Elite certification, reaching the highest level of accreditation in health and safety standards. This certification demonstrates our promise and commitment to compliance to UK Health and Safety legislation, but also our alignment with the construction industry’s best practices, including the Common Assessment Standard.
By attaining CHAS Elite status, we have proven our excellence across 13 key areas of risk management, including financial, insurance, corporate & professional standing, environmental, quality, equality, diversity & inclusion, and information security. This milestone represents a significant step in our on-going mission to deliver safe, compliant, and reliable services to customers.
This accreditation supports our customer evolving needs, particularly those in regulated sectors such as construction and the public sector.
“We pursued the CHAS Elite certification because we understand that our customers expect the highest standards when it comes to health and safety. This accreditation not only reinforces our commitment to those standards, but also provides tangible benefits to our clients, from reduced compliance risks to enhanced reputation and trust,” said Steve Scarfe, Compliance Programme Manager at Redcentric.
