CHAS Accreditation
February 28, 2013
We are pleased to announce that A1 Blinds are now CHAS accredited (Contractors Health & Safety Assessment Scheme).
Each month thousands of contractors and suppliers (such as A1 Blinds) apply for work with public and private sector organisations (buyers). To win work, they must meet the buyer’s health and safety standards.
Assessing a suppliers health and safety competence is usually a lengthy and time consuming process. Suppliers can sometimes meet one buyer’s Health and Safety standards but not another. Being CHAS approved reduces duplication as suppliers compliance is accepted by all CHAS buyers.
The CHAS scheme assesses our:
- Health and safety policy statement;
- Our organisation for health and safety;
- Our specific health and safety arrangements to a standard acceptable to our buyers and to others.
