We're Proud to have Achieved CHAS Advanced Membership Status
Xcel Safety Group Ltd is proud to announce it has achieved CHAS (Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme) accreditation under the Safety Schemes in Procurement (SSIP) framework, demonstrating its commitment to maintaining industry-leading health and safety standards.
CHAS is recognised as one of the UK’s leading pre-qualification safety schemes, enabling companies to showcase their compliance with statutory safety legislation. By securing SSIP accreditation, Xcel has joined a group of SSIP-registered organisations whose assessments are mutually recognised—streamlining compliance for clients and partners.
"Achieving SSIP status through CHAS is a crucial milestone for our business," said Cameron Scarle, Managing Director at Xcel Safety Group. "It validates the systems we've built around risk management, training, and workplace safety—and opens doors to new opportunities in public and private sector procurement."
Key Benefits of CHAS SSIP Accreditation:
Mutual recognition: Eliminates repetitive audits—SSIP-registered schemes share assessment results .
Improved tender access: Many public and corporate contracts require SSIP certification.
Demonstrated excellence: Confirms that Xcel’s health and safety practices meet SSIP’s core criteria, on par with ISO 45001 standards.
This accreditation underscores Xcel Safety Group’s commitment to safety excellence and regulatory compliance. Alongside its ongoing portfolio of services, CHAS SSIP accreditation further strengthens the company’s credentials and credibility within the safety consulting sector.
