Alcumus is set to merge its health and safety accreditation scheme ‘ContractorPlus’ into its market leading ‘SafeContractor’ scheme, which will simplify the amount of health and safety assessment programmes available to both clients and contractors.
The merger will see benefits for both clients and contractors of the scheme, including cost savings resulting from only needing to join one scheme, less paperwork and administration and a larger amount of contractors visible to a greater number of clients.
SafeContractor is the fastest growing health and safety accreditation scheme in the UK and has taken another major step towards becoming an industry leader in accreditation services as a result of the merger.
Former members of ContractorPlus will also now be able to enjoy the advantages on offer by the SafeContractor member benefits package.
As well as health and safety expertise, the SafeContractor scheme also adds value to all contractors with a package full of trade discounts and preferential rates on services that support their business.
Included in the recent additions to this package area ccess to domestic work across the UK via Rated People, competitive insurance products from Towergate Insurance and discounted car hire services provided by Nexus.
The official launch for the SafeContractor merger is 4th October 2016, for further information visit www.SafeContractor.com.
