Top Safety Accreditation for Kee Safety Ltd

Kee Safety Ltd is the latest group of successful companies to join a leading edge scheme, designed to help industry improve its safety record. The Reading based firm recently received accreditation from SAFEcontractor, a programme which recognises very high standards of health and safety practice amongst UK contractors. The company's application for SAFEcontractor accreditation was driven by the need for a uniform standard across the business. SAFEcontractor is an accreditation scheme that assesses the health & safety competency of contractors and service providers. Many large organisations now use SAFEcontractor as their primary means of selecting contractors to ensure that external contractors and service providers working on their premises operate in a safe way. SAFEcontractor is applicable to most sectors although it is particularly relevant to food manufacture, property, facilities management, retail and leasure sectors, all of which are big users of contract services. 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". "More companies need to understand the importance of adopting good risk management in the way that Kee Safety Ltd has done. The firms high standard has set an example, which hopefully will be followed by other companies within sector". Under the SAFEcontractor system, business undergoes a vetting process, which examines health and safety procedure and their track record for safe practice.
