Embracing the Gold Standard Journey: Collaborating for Positive Change and Building a Safer Future

Commitment to Industry Excellence and Compliance

As an SSSCP member, your commitment to our code of conduct and active participation in supporting fellow members are crucial in maintaining the highest standards within the construction and built environment sectors.

Your adherence helps demonstrate to regulatory bodies such as the Health & Safety Executive, Environmental Health Officer, and the Building Safety Regulator that all operations meet the rigorous new legal competence requirements, thus ensuring safety, compliance, and prevention of harm across building practices.

Commitment to Industry Excellence and Compliance

As an SSSCP member, your commitment to our code of conduct and active participation in fostering positive behaviours are essential for maintaining the highest standards within the construction and built environment sectors.

This is all part of your gold standard journey, where nothing changes overnight. This journey is about driving cultural change together, at every level. Change can be challenging, and people don’t always embrace it immediately. Therefore, we approach this transformation in a measurable, positive, and sustainable way, allowing time for everyone to adjust and grow. SSSCP membership is built around this gradual journey towards competency, accountability, and excellence.

While we cannot force compliance, we do expect a commitment to positive change. We are working alongside industry leaders, including our social media platform UNITE, to create lasting behavioural change. Over time, these efforts will encourage individuals to embrace personal accountability and responsibility, transforming industry culture from the bottom up.

We are aligned with the gold standard set forth in the Hackitt Report, which highlights the critical role of individual competence and accountability in the construction industry.

This commitment involves clear responsibilities, ongoing professional development, and staying current with evolving regulations. By joining SSSCP, you contribute to a culture of safety and accountability, which not only benefits your professional growth but also strengthens the industry’s overall competence and safety.
