Certification
A Joint Standards Advisory Panel (JSAP) which
includes client bodies, professional bodies,
the Health and Safety Authority, the Health
and Safety Executive Northern Ireland, the
Trade Unions and contractors advise on the
standards for certification.
Only companies that have gone through a detailed

Further Information
| Construction
Skills Register (CSR) |
 |
All Anderson Mechanical Operatives have completed
the industry approved CSR health and safety
training course. The aims of the registration
scheme are to raise standards of health and
safety and provide recognition of skills,
experience and qualifications attained.
To become registered, workers have completed
a minimum of the one day health and safety
training course, delivered by an accredited
training provider. Operatives have also been
assessed to ascertain their level of competency
in their skill area. All have a photographic
identity card that provides proof of their
health and safety training and their skills
and qualifications.
Mutual
Recognition
The CSR scheme has the added benefit that
it improves the mobility and therefore employability
of cardholders. The card is accepted outside
of Northern Ireland through a mutual recognition
agreement between CSR and the FAS Safe Pass
Safety Awareness Training Programme in the
Republic of Ireland, and through an affiliation
with the Construction Skills Certification
Scheme (CSCS) in Britain.
