Press Release 31.01.22
MLD Event group Ltd have been working hard with our in-house expertise lead by our Tech IOSH Director Sharon Charidge to be awarded accreditation from Alcumus, SafeContractor for achieving excellence in health and safety and sustainability. “As a Principal Contractor leading the way in the event industry for CDM it is crucial we achieve External verification and accreditation for our safe systems of work“
Alcumus SafeContractor is a leading SSIP, third party accreditation scheme which recognises extremely rigorous standards in health and safety management amongst contractors. It is used by thousands of organisations in the UK including SMEs and FTSE 100 companies.
The company’s application for SafeContractor accreditation was driven by the need for a uniform standard across the business and to exhibit our passion for health and safety in the industry. SafeContractor accreditation will enhance the company’s ability to win new contracts, and its commitment to safety will be viewed positively by its insurers and clients alike.
Gemma Archibald, Director of Alcumus SafeContractor said: “Major organisations simply cannot afford to run the risk of employing contractors who are not able to prove that they have sound health and safety policies in place.”
“More companies need to understand the importance of adopting good risk management in the way that MLD Event Group and its team have done. The company’s high standard has set an example which hopefully will be followed by other companies within the event industry. SafeContractor plays a vital role in supporting our clients in meeting their compliance needs, whilst working with their contractors as they progress through the accreditation process.”
