FAQ's - CHAS

CHAS (Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme) is a UK-based, third-party accreditation scheme that assesses and verifies the health and safety competency of contractors and service providers. Being CHAS accredited indicates that a contractor or service provider meets essential health and safety standards.
To obtain CHAS accreditation, contractors/service providers must: Register on the CHAS website. Complete the CHAS assessment, which involves submitting health and safety documentation relevant to their business size and type. Demonstrate compliance with the CHAS standards in areas like risk assessments, health and safety policies, training, equipment checks, and incident management.
Yes, CHAS is a founding member of the SSIP (Safety Schemes in Procurement). SSIP facilitates mutual recognition between health and safety pre-qualification schemes, meaning that being accredited by one SSIP member scheme can be recognized by others.
Both CHAS and SafeContractor are health and safety accreditation schemes and are members of the SSIP. While they have similar goals of assessing and verifying the health and safety competency of contractors, they operate independently. The primary difference lies in their assessment processes, criteria, and costs. Organisations might choose one over the other based on personal preference, client requirements, or specific industry needs.
CHAS is not legally mandatory. However, many organisations and public sector bodies might require contractors and service providers to be CHAS accredited or hold a similar accreditation as a prerequisite for tendering or conducting work.
The cost for CHAS registration varies depending on the size of the company and the level of accreditation sought. Prices are subject to change, so it’s best to consult the official CHAS website or contact them directly for the most up-to-date pricing information.
The time it takes to become CHAS registered depends on several factors, including the completeness of the information and documentation you provide, and the current volume of applications CHAS is processing. Generally, once all the required documentation has been submitted correctly, it can take a few weeks for the assessment process to complete.
A CHAS certificate typically lasts for one year. After this period, companies will need to renew their accreditation, which may involve a reassessment, to ensure they still meet the CHAS health and safety standards.
