Safecontractor Accreditation

Cetronic Power Solutions Ltd has been awarded accreditation from safe contractor for its commitment to achieving excellence in health and safety. Safe contractor is a leading third party accreditation scheme which recognises very high standards in health and safety management amongst UK contractors. Cetronic is principally involved in the electrical power protection sector, specialising in the uninterruptible power supply (UPS Systems) and power monitoring survey markets. The company’s application for Safe contractor accreditation was driven by the need for a uniform standard across the business which will enhance the company’s ability to attract new contracts and its commitment to safety. This accreditation is applicable to most sectors although it is particularly relevant to food manufacture, property, facilities management, retail and leisure sectors, all of which are big users of contracted services. Under the Safe contractor scheme, businesses undergo a vetting process which examines health and safety procedures and their track record for safe practice. Those companies meeting the high standard are included on a database, which is accessible to registered users only via a website. Client-organisations who sign up to the scheme can access the database, enabling them to vet potential contractors before they even set foot on site. These clients agree that, as users of the scheme, they will engage only those who have received accreditation. Over one hundred and seventy major nation-wide businesses, from several key sectors, have signed up to use the scheme when selecting contractors for services such as building, cleaning, maintenance, refurbishment or electrical and mechanical work.
