Management Systems
In today’s construction industry, third-party accreditation for quality, environmental, and health & safety standards has become a key requirement for many clients. With years of experience in advising and guiding businesses through the implementation of accredited management systems, CHC is well-equipped to support your needs.

We offer a professional, tailored service designed to fit your specific requirements. The systems we implement are aligned with your organisation’s operations and are focused on driving real business improvements—rather than simply generating paperwork. Our goal is to help you achieve third-party accreditation, guiding you through each step of the process until successful certification is achieved.

Construction (Design & Management) Regulations
CHC offers expert CDM advisory services to help the construction and engineering industries meet their obligations under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2016 (CDM 2016).

These regulations require designers to assess risks not only during the construction phase but also in relation to the completed structure. Designers must consider potential risks for the end user, including usage, maintenance, and, in some cases, the demolition of the structure at the end of its lifecycle.

A key update in the regulations is the introduction of the Principal Designer role. The Principal Designer is responsible for managing, coordinating, and reviewing health and safety aspects during the design phase of the project.

Qualitative Face Fit Testing
Is the RPE You’re Providing Effectively Protecting Your Workers?

A recent HSE survey revealed that only half of the companies surveyed were effectively protecting their workers with the use of Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE).

Training Courses
At CHC, we offer bespoke in-house health and safety training courses, tailored to meet the unique needs of your organisation. Many of our clients have specific requirements, and we work closely with you to design and deliver training that addresses these needs.

If you have particular training objectives, we invite you to get in touch so we can discuss course content, delivery methods, ideal locations, accreditation options, required documentation, and more. Our goal is to provide a flexible and effective training solution that fits your requirements perfectly.
