What Is CHAS?
The Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme
Is an authority and trusted advisor on health and safety compliance. Their accreditation scheme acts as a pre-qualification tool during the tender process.
Some buyers require a contractor is CHAS accredited before they allow you to tender. Organisations range from councils, schools and other public-sector bodies and private organisations like care homes and new build estates etc.
The purpose of CHAS is to help both buyers and suppliers in the assessment of health and safety competence. With over 900 organisations actively seeking work through one of the approved contractors, CHAS is the most popular H&S accreditation in the UK.
We have helped clients in multiple industries become CHAS accredited
