ARCA award recognises 6 consecutive excellent audits

More member contractors gain the ARCA Gold Site Audit Award this year, even when nearly 90% of the combined audits were unannounced.

ARCA acknowledges member contractors’ consistent high performance on-site by presenting a Gold Site Audit Award. This award is not for just one excellent audit in one year but for 6 consecutive excellent membership audits in 3 years.

“This is a very meaningful award as it proves high standards and best practice is maintained over a lengthy period of time and over various removal jobs,” commented Geoff Silver, Membership Compliance Manager for ARCA.

“It is very important to recognise that, from the combined site audits undertaken by these winners in the 3 years, nearly 90% were unannounced audits. Meaning they had no idea that an auditor was coming on-site to review their performance, so giving a more realistic view of a contractor’s usual performance.”

“Congratulations to all winners. Gaining this award illustrates the quality of all the team members both in the office and on site.”

Under the Association’s membership audit scheme contractors undertake two ‘unannounced’ site audits every year (both audits became unannounced, that is no prior notice, from January 2017). These audits have to be passed satisfactorily for the company to maintain membership.

For the Gold Site Audit Award asbestos removal contractor members need to achieve Grade A-C, with an average of at least a Grade B, in 6 consecutive membership audits.

ARCA is committed to continually improve standards, so providing clients with a high level of reassurance.
