Uninterruptible Power Supplies has announced the PowerWAVE9000DPA - the next generation of the company's highly acclaimed 3-phase rack-format modular UPS products.
SAFEcontractor is an accreditation scheme which assesses the overall competency of organisations operating in the contracting field.
It recognises that companies have a legal obligation to ensure that their suppliers/contractors operate in a safe way, and is increasingly used by larger organisations to assess contractors? health and safety arrangements as a basis for the compilation and management of approved supplier lists.
Uninterruptible Power Supplies has been awarded certification following an audit by National Britannia, the body authorised to assess contractor?s health and safety documentation against SAFEcontractor Charter Standards.
These standard include general criteria as well as specifics relating to the particular work activities of the contractor.
Assessments are carried out by highly qualified auditors, and standards are regularly reviewed by a user group comprising representatives from contractors and a wide range of industries.
Specific areas of Uninterruptible Power Supplies? assessment included internal organisation, health and safety training, procedures and method statements, risk assessments, health and safety history, work equipment, and control of sub-contractors.
As a result of this accreditation, Uninterruptible Power Supplies, the UK?s foremost independent supplier of UPS systems, now features on a database of approved contractors, saving potential clients the time-consuming task of undertaking their own assessment, and helping companies to ensure that they meet the ever-increasing legal requirements covering health and safety at work.
