Hi
Talk to safe contractor for the price it varies
Its all  paperwork RAMS  /  insurance /   environmental policy / anti slavery
If you do not have the correct paperwork they will provide (sometimes for a cost)

There online  application  system is not easy , you should do it in a afternoon (allot of uploading )

The only issue is if you pay safe contractor and lose the job you lose money
ask the company you work for if you can put the price on

Just let mine expire use the FWC Safety Accredited Member

Thank you. I’ve done the job for 15 years so for the sake of £400 a year or whatever it looks as though I will have to sign up. Thanks for your advice.

Ps I’ve also emailed the manager to double check as I’m a sole trader and want to make 100% sure they basically need me to sign up or I lose the job which I can not afford to.

pole is fairly new top section is badly worn due to the clamp nut working loose

Use a bit of threadlock on the bolt.

Handy to have it on your van and on your website. As long as the money keeps coming in and it helps you keep the contract. In the end its just another money making thing because we are all safe contractors.

The job is worth it as it’s monthly. Any advice of what’s involved would be great. Thanks

How much is the job worth? It would have to be a very profitable contract to make me want to sign up to safe contractor as a one man band.

I agree - if it was shown as extra I would agree the tax man would be interested.

my thinking was he was trying to make out he's bigger than he is - he's been in window cleaning a few more years than me but now trying to do p/w work

spruce - I might just do that  ;D

Hi guys, today from one of my commercial clients I’ve had a request to sign up to this before Feb 2025. It appears looking at the email it’s obligatory. I’m only a one man operator. Is this as daunting as it seems? What is the process to get accredited? Also I note there are different packages also starting from £399 per year.

Any advice would be great. Thanks.

Probably badly worded but could land him in trouble i guess if it ever came to light

Doubt it - any by the time you've half arsed about doing that you could have done 4/5 cleans and earned 200 notes instead of 40

there will always be people (customers  ::)roll) asking you to do odd little jobs - usually because they get it done cheap.

One word of caution - check you have permission to "Deep Clean" headstones - and I don't mean your customer

What happened?  ;D
I was previously a memorial mason. You didn’t bleach some marble per chance?
