How CHAS helps the construction industry

Creating a safe and sustainable future in a high-risk industry. 

In construction, high levels of risk are a fact of life. It’s why the standards the industry is held to are so high, and why ensuring compliance through CHAS is a valuable shield against damage to your workers, your business and your reputation. 

 We help clients and contractors in effectively manage risks, including those relating to the environment, corporate social responsibility and financial health. We make it as simple as possible to achieve and maintain compliance, improve the efficiency and sustainability of operations, and ensure the safety of workers and communities. 

 Our audits are purpose-built, with question sets perfectly aligned with the major legislation (Procurement Act 2023, CDM Regulations, the Building Safety Act) and both core industry standards, SSIP and CAS.  And when the audits are industry-ready, so are you.
