JIB registered operatives
JIB registered operatives have electro-technical certification scheme grade cards showing assessment and CSCS affiliation.
The administration and monitoring of these cards is carried out by the Joint Industry Board.
All operatives attend a two day Contractors Safety Passport course. Staff authorised to operate plant and equipment have been properly trained and licensed.
Toolbox talks on relevant subjects are carried out on site on a weekly basis to ensure that training is up to date – which is also the impetus behind maintaining and regularly updating detailed training records for every employee.
We also have an ongoing employee assessment policy to ensure that all staff are competent to carry out their duties in a safe and efficient manner.
