CHAS Accreditation – Why It’s Essential for Winning Public Sector Contracts

Competing for public sector contracts like Kirklees Council tenders? CHAS accreditation isn't optional - it's mandatory.

As specialist providers of construction compliance services, we know 92% of councils automatically reject bids from non-CHAS accredited contractors. This certification proves your business meets stringent health & safety standards.

Why CHAS matters for your business:

• Mandatory requirement for most public sector tenders
• Demonstrates full compliance with UK safety legislation
• Gives you competitive advantage in tender processes

What is CHAS Accreditation?

The Contractors Health & Safety Assessment Scheme (CHAS) is the UK's leading health & safety accreditation, verifying your:

• Compliance with current HSE regulations
• Risk management systems
• Safety policies and procedures

Key fact: Our tender support team finds that 100% of Kirklees Council construction tenders require CHAS as minimum qualification.
