ESSA Accredited (2)

What it is and why it matters

it provides demonstrable proof that the member company is operating at the required level to meet stage one requirements of assessing competence under CDM 2015;
it aligns with the requirements of ISO 20121 Sustainable Event Management and other management system standards whilst adopting the principles of SSIP (Safety Schemes in Procurement) member schemes such as CHAS, Safemark and Greenlight);
it includes phased rollouts for requirements for sustainability credentials that event businesses are increasingly being asked for including policy statements on the environment and inclusivity;
it provides for those member companies that are not involved in construction related activities, they can apply for a ‘non-construction related’ accreditation;
it has been presented to both organisers and venues and has received a very warm welcome as it provides peace of mind for both, due to its rigorous evaluation of health and safety processes within the ESSA member company.
