What is SSIP?
SSIP stands for Safety Schemes in Procurement. It is an accreditation scheme that requires companies to demonstrate that they have met the necessary standards related to health and safety in order to be accepted onto a certain procurement contract.
This scheme sets out the requirements which must be met by those who are looking to enter into a contract with either a local or national government body.
What standards does SSIP require?
In order for companies to gain accreditation under the SSIP scheme, they must demonstrate that they meet a range of standards, including occupational health and safety management systems (OH&SMS); staff competence; and management of health and safety risk.
These standards are set out by the Safety Schemes in Procurement Forum, which is made up of trade bodies representing all sectors of industry.
How does the SSIP Scheme benefit employers?
By adopting SSIP accreditation, employers can demonstrate their commitment to workplace health and safety through evidence-based practices.
This can help them attract quality candidates when recruiting new staff, as well as helping them secure contracts with large public sector organisations who often require suppliers to possess this type of accreditation.
Additionally, it can also help reduce any potential liability should an incident occur on site due to inadequate safety controls being present there.
