VCU certification: safe temporary employment and secondment
VCU stands for Safety and Health Checklist for Temporary Employment Organizations. The certification is intended for temporary employment and secondment agencies that supply personnel to SCC-certified companies. These are often organizations that work in environments with increased risks, such as construction sites, factories, workshops and technical installations.
How does VCU certification work?
VCU certification focuses on process control, risk awareness and compliance with occupational health and safety legislation. During the process, it is assessed whether your organization works according to the VCU checklist and has integrated safety into procedures, communication and personnel management.
Periodic, independent audits check whether you continue to meet the requirements. In this way, you continuously demonstrate that safety is not a one-off action, but a permanent part of your organization.
With VCU certification, you benefit from clear advantages:
- You increase the safety awareness of employees
- You reduce absenteeism and the number of accidents
- You demonstrate compliance with important health & safety legislation and regulations.
- You increase your chance of winning contracts and tenders.
- You stand out from non-certified competitors
