The CDM 2015 regulations place responsibility on clients to assess the competence of contractors they appoint for construction work. This involves verifying that individuals and companies possess the necessary skills, knowledge, experience, and resources to execute tasks safely and effectively.
However, conducting these assessments can be challenging due to limited time and resources, especially in the exhibition industry. To support both its members and the wider industry, ESSA Accreditation takes on this responsibility by thoroughly assessing companies on their health, safety, and management systems.
The accredited members listed below have undergone a rigorous evaluation, demonstrating a high level of safety management. This independent audit, based on PAS91, SSIP core criteria, and ISO certifications, not only helps clients fulfill their "reasonable steps to assess competence" requirement under CDM legislation but also fosters a safer work environment. Emphasizing confidence, professionalism, and a safety-oriented culture, accreditation becomes an invaluable asset for any company.
