Why competent advice matters
Named support for statutory health and safety duties.
Every employer needs access to competent health and safety advice. Failing to appoint competent safety support can leave an employer in breach of statutory duty under health and safety legislation.
For many small and medium-sized organisations, employing a full-time safety professional is not financially viable. GMCT’s Competent Person Service gives you access to named health and safety support at a lower cost, allowing you to call on experts as required.
Most PQQs, contractor evaluation schemes and accreditation submissions expect immediate access to experienced safety knowledge. Subscribing to the GMCT scheme allows you to designate Greater Manchester Construction Training Ltd as your competent person.
