Derisk (part of DE Group) achieves safecontractor accreditation

Derisk has been awarded accreditation from safecontractor for its commitment to achieving excellence in health and safety. safecontractor is a leading third party accreditation scheme which recognises very high standards in health and safety management amongst UK contractors.

Derisk works within the construction industry, specialising in health and safety risk management services within the public and private sectors in the UK. Derisk are experts in providing competent advice to an expanding client base in respect of health and safety risk management.

The company’s application for safecontractor accreditation was driven by the need for a uniform, recognised standard across the business.

Marc Smith, Managing Director Derisk said:

“Gaining the safecontractor accreditation is viewed as key 3rd party accreditation for our business. By undertaking this assessment we feel it demonstrates our strong commitment to safety excellence, which will be viewed positively by prospective new customers in their own vetting processes and procurement processes alike.”

John Kinge, technical director of safecontractor said:

"Major organisations simply cannot afford to run the risk of employing contractors who are not able to prove that they have sound health and safety policies in place."

He went on to say:

"More companies need to understand the importance of adopting good risk management in the way that Derisk has done. The firm’s high standard has set an example which hopefully will be followed by other companies within the sector. safecontractor plays a vital role in supporting our clients in meeting their compliance needs, whilst working with their contractors as they progress through the accreditation process.”

Under the safecontractor 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.
