Competence assurance

There is a growing requirement within our industry for employees to demonstrate on-going competence in their chosen discipline. Competence schemes make sure that individuals in safety critical and other positions are assessed against current legislative, technical and operational requirements. They ensure that those working in today’s industry have the appropriate skills and behaviours, making them a desirable and valuable employee. The provision of a competent workforce plays a central role in ensuring the safe and effective execution of operations.
