Contractor managementManaging contractors on site can be a health & safety nightmare. It’s so important it’s governed by 4 pieces of legislation including the Health & Safety at Work Act and COSHH.
 
The health & safety issues associated with a contractor’s lack of knowledge of your site along with the type of work being carried out can cause many headaches.  A simple solution to manage jobs through to completion would take away the stresses.
