We’re delighted to announce that Marren has achieved SafeContractor accreditation for the 14thyear in a row. Above, you can see our Procurement and Logistics Manager, Lee Scroxton, proudly holding the certificate!

SafeContractor is a health and safety audit service for tradespeople and businesses that is very similar to the Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme (CHAS). It’s a brilliant way to reassure our customers that Marren works safely and in accordance with the latest regulations and guidelines.

This is particularly important in the foodservice industry where heavy-duty industrial cooking equipment takes pride of place in kitchens, bars and restaurants. The SafeContractor accreditation plays a key role in enabling Marren to supply its services and huge range of accelerated cooking and microwave parts to businesses throughout the UK.

Marren is a fully accredited SafeContractor business, which means our policies, procedures, training and insurances have been rigorously tested and audited by the SafeContractor Audit Services Team. This leaves our customers in no doubt that our operation is as safe as it should be and removes any risk they might have been concerned about while working with non-accredited suppliers.

Having experienced the audit process over the course of fourteen years, we can confirm it is far-reaching, completely independent and very thorough. The benefits of being fully SafeContractor accredited are numerous:

  • all health and safety paperwork that covers day-to-day operations is provided by SafeContractor;
  • the best tools, policy templates and guidance notes are made available to the Marren team; and
  • we gain a dedicated auditor who works directly with us to achieve health and safety accreditation.

SafeContractor has been accrediting businesses for nearly twenty years, and we’ve always found the process of working with them to be efficient, educational and capable of developing great new internal policies for health and safety.

“We’re so happy to have maintained our SafeContractor status,” enthuses Lee, who holds a NEBOSH qualification in Health & Safety. “It’s representative of all the hard work the entire team puts in to remain compliant with the tough health and safety laws in this country. We value the safety of our staff and customers above everything else, which is why the SafeContractor accreditation is so incredibly important to us.”
