Minster Cleaning Services in Beverley have received accreditation renewal from SAFEcontractor, a programme which recognises very high standards of health and safety practice amongst UK contractors.

The company's audit for renewal of the SAFEcontractor accreditation was driven by the need for a uniform standard across the business. John Kinge, Head of Risk at SAFEcontractor said, "Major organisations can no longer run the risk of employing contractors who are not able to prove that they have sound health and safety policies." Under the SAFEcontractor system, businesses undergo a vetting process, which examines health and safety procedures and their track record for safe practice. Those companies meeting the high standard are included on a database, which is accessible to registered users only via a website, www.safecontractor.com.
