Every accident is one too many – occupational safety and health are crucial when working in a power plant
Employees of Clyde Bergemann GmbH in Wesel, Germany show competence of high safety standards by passing SCC checks successfully.
Wesel/Germany, March 2011
Occupational safety is of major importance to power plant operators.
Suppliers can be excluded from contract qualification if they show no evidence of compliance with safety standards. Certification under SCC assesses the health and safety management system of companies performing work on the premises of third parties. The acronym SCC stands for “Safety Certificate Contractors“. Since 2005, Clyde Bergemann GmbH has been certified in accordance with SCC guidelines that apply all over Europe. The SCC certificate provides evidence to Clyde Bergemann in Wesel, Germany’s customers, among which are operators of coal-fired power plants, incinerators and industrial boilers, that employees have received training in all aspects of occupational safety and health protection.
In order to qualify for the certification process or to retain the seal of approval, no more than two reportable industrial accidents should have occurred during any given year. Quite recently, another 35 employees of Clyde Bergemann came together to attend a preparatory workshop with subsequent examinations in the in-house training and conference centre. Topics ranged from legal aspects to the identification and assessment of risks and analysis of accidents. The Elsevier Academy, as accredited SCC auditor, supervised and evaluated the examination results. All participants have successfully provided evidence of their proficiency.
