BRL 6000-25 certification and the legal CO obligation
Does your organization perform work on gas combustion plants? If so, your organization is working with risks. Incomplete combustion can release carbon monoxide (CO): an odorless and life-threatening gas.
Since April 1, 2023, only CO-certified companies are allowed to install, maintain or repair these installations. BRL 6000-25 is one of the recognized certification schemes that allows you to meet this legal obligation.
With a BRL 6000-25 certificate you demonstrate that your organization works according to the applicable safety regulations and that your employees are competent.
