Top Safety Accreditation for Atex Solutions Limited

Local business Atex Solutions Limited has been awarded accreditation from Alcumus SafeContractor for achieving excellence in health and safety in the workplace.

Alcumus SafeContractor is a leading 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.

Employing more than ten people, Atex Solutions Limited is principally involved in the Electrical Contracting sector specialising in the Petro/Chemical, Aeronautical and Food industries, with a £10+ million turnover. Atex Solutions Limited’s most recent clients have included major players such as Bae Systems, NHS, BNFL, Burtons Foods and Victrex PLC

The company’s application for SafeContractor accreditation was driven by the need for a uniform standard across the business. SafeContractor accreditation will enhance the company’s ability to win new contracts, and its commitment to safety will be viewed positively by its insurers when the company liability policy is up for renewal.

Gemma Archibald, Divisional CEO 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 Atex Solutions Limited has done. The firm’s high standard has set an example which hopefully will be followed by other companies within the sector. 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.”

Statement:

“We are honored to have attained this prestigious safety accreditation, reflecting our commitment to the highest standards required in our industry. Given that our client portfolio includes major international companies in the chemical, petrochemical, aeronautical, and food sectors, the threshold for success is exceptionally high. We remain dedicated to continuous improvement, ensuring that safety and welfare are our utmost priority.”
