Uniter Group achieves SAFEcontractor accreditation
Uniter Group Ltd, the UK’s leading provider of technical support solutions, has achieved SAFEcontractor accreditation in recognition of the high levels of health and safety standards practiced across the organisation. This accreditation will play an important role in enabling Uniter and all Group companies to demonstrate a commitment to meeting all health and safety standards to new and existing clients operating in a wide range of market sectors.
“Our application for SAFEcontractor accreditation was driven by the need for a uniform standard across the business and demonstrate that we take our health and safety responsibilities seriously,” commented Jo Klingen, Managing Director of Uniter Group. “It shows that we have taken a positive step to meet our legal obligation to ensure that our technical support engineers are always operating in the safest way whilst on customer premises.”
Uniter Group achieved the SAFEcontractor accreditation after undergoing a vetting process which examined all health and safety procedures and its track record for safe practice. SAFEcontractor is the fastest growing health and safety accreditation scheme in the UK, with more than 140 major clients and almost 18,000 contractor members. With its growing profile in the UK, the scheme is now used by many large organisations as a way of obtaining competent contractors for services such as maintenance, refurbishment, electrical and mechanical work.
