Safe Contractor Approved
du Boulay Contracts is one of the latest group of successful companies to join a leading edge scheme, designed to help the industry improve its safety record.
The London based firm recently received accreditation from SAFEcontractor, a programme which recognises very high standards of health and safety practice amongst UK contractors.
Specialising in the commercial refurbishment sector of the construction industry, du Boulay Contracts’ most recent clients include Jamie’s Italian, J Sheekey and Wahaca.
Darran Hughes, Operations Director of SAFEcontractor said, “Major organisations can no longer run the risk of employing contractors who are not able to prove that they have sound health and safety policies”
Under the SAFEcontractor system, businesses undergo a vetting process, which examines health and safety procedures and their track record for safe practice. Employer organisations who sign up to the scheme can use the database, which enables them to vet potential contractors before they even set foot on the site.
Over one hundred and twenty nationwide businesses, from several sectors, have signed up to use the scheme when selecting contractors for services such as building, cleaning, maintenance, refurbishment or electrical and mechanical work.
