Why Choose Paddeco Third Party Certification?

If you currently use a third party certification provider (to certify the competence of individuals), ask yourself these questions. Is the answer to every one, “yes”?

Is Your Third Party Certification Provider…

Accredited with ISO/IEC 17024 which allows them to certify the person actually doing the job?

Assessing the competence of your operatives against National Occupational Standards?

Visiting you on-site to conduct mandatory workplace assessments?

Assessing and developing you/your operatives periodically, between workplace verification procedures?

Using competent, qualified assessors and internal quality assurers, who are qualified and compliant in making judgements on installers?

Using quality assurers to ensure that quality control meets UKAS standards, and that there is ongoing monitoring and development practices implemented to the scheme?

Paddeco’s Third Party Certification Scheme

Paddeco’s Third Party Certification Scheme (UKAS ISO/IEC 17024 accreditation underway) has been created to provide a framework of standards to ensure that installation operatives are continually monitored and developed, ensuring that they are competent and compliant in the workplace and are working to the highest possible industry standards; the National Occupational Standards (NOS).

Certification for the installer is one means of providing assurance that the certified person meets the requirements of the certification scheme.

Features Of Paddeco’s Scheme Include:

Regular onsite assessments by Paddeco assessors who are compliant, to government standards, and authorised to make judgements of competence on installers.

Ensures that operatives are competent and compliant in the workplace by certifying everybody under this scheme to the current National Occupational Standards.

The scheme tells employers, and their clients, that the certified person has the requisite skills, knowledge, experience and behaviours, is working to the highest possible standards and is being regularly monitored by qualified individuals.

By working to the National Occupational Standards, certified persons are raising the standard of the industry and meeting the government’s requirements of the Building Safety Act 2022.

Regular assignments will be aligned to the government’s Working Group 2 key principals, including generic and specific health and safety, fire safety training, technical training, and behavioural competence in-line with the Bsi Flex 8670 – Code of Practice.

Paddeco Certification will help support the principal contractor in meeting their responsibilities under the BSi 8672, in “developing people and teams”, and will help “to monitor the validation and periodic revalidation of individual workforce competences”(BSi)”.
