New Health and Safety Accreditation for Cavendish

Cavendish Communication has been awarded an accreditation certificate by the Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme (CHAS). The scheme is established as the market leader for health and safety pre-qualification and is required by many buyers from health trusts, emergency services and government departments as well as large private companies.

The nationally recognised scheme required us to demonstrate compliance with health and safety standards and pass what will become an annual assessment.

In passing the assessment we have shown that we can adequately manage health and safety to the required standards providing evidence of specific risk assessments, health and safety training and adequate supervision.

Whilst the scheme is used extensively by local authority and government departments, it provides additional assurances for any customer that Cavendish will carry out work in a responsible and safe manner.

Speaking about the certification, Group HR Manager, Nicky Calladine said, "We are pleased to have our robust health and safety processes recognised by the CHAS scheme, it is reassuring for customers and staff alike that we comply with health and safety legislation."

Sales Director, David Moorat added, "Having the CHAS accreditation means that Cavendish is perfectly positioned to carry out work for local authorities and government departments. The pre-approval for health and safety should significantly shorten the lead times for projects where this accreditation is required."

The CHAS compliance builds on our existing ISO9001 accreditation and further endorses the reputation that we have built over 20 years of being a quality driven organisation.
