What is Safe-T-Cert ?

Safe-T-Cert is a Health and Safety Management System Accreditation that is assessed by a third party and is awarded by the Construction Industry Federation of Ireland [C.I.F.].

Safe-­T-­Cert is a certification scheme designed for certifying the Safety Management Systems of contractors working in the construction industry. The Scheme’s objective is to improve health and safety management by providing objective standards and certifying those contractors whose safety management systems have been assessed, and can demonstrate that they:

- Are inline with the ILO guidelines for Safety Management System

· Meet the basic requirements for training and competence

· Implement an occupational health and safety management system which meets the requirements of Safe-T-­Cert standard – incorporating continual improvement.

 

The Benefits of Safe-T-­Cert Certification

Certification under the Scheme is a unique selling point for contractors to clients and others to indicate a professional approach to the health and safety management function and is thus a potential differentiation. The Scheme satisfies the health and safety suitability requirements for contractor organisations for public procurement in the Republic of Ireland and removes the requirement to provide additional information.
