What Qocept Do
Qocept have experience and knowledge in many countries that have varied requirements and expectations.
We currently provide Health and Safety Consultants throughout the UK, Europe and Scandinavia to Enercon who are one of the leading worldwide companies in the renewables industry. Enercon are very passionate about health, safety and the welfare of its employees and choose Qocept to support the company in health and safety requirements.
Due to the fast changing technology in the wind industry we have experience in working with complex prototype equipment and developing new techniques and procedures for safe and efficient installations.
Qocept understand there are many companies providing safety personnel to the renewables and construction industry and we have no doubt the vast majority provide a very good service. We have no comment about any other service provider; our only statement is that we have a determination for Qocept be the very best in the industry.
We believe that Qocept provides an excellent service to all of our projects and we strive to exceed our clients’ expectations. Regardless of the different international locations and projects all of our safety specialists and staff work together as a team assisting and supporting each other from a central location in the UK. This provides a vast wealth of knowledge and experience for our clients and ensures health and safety is not only maintained but is constantly improved on all projects. Often a single safety consultant is deployed to a project but we ensure they have an expert team behind them providing full support and assistance.
As part of the ongoing business plan we recognise that the HSO’s require support during the site set up and development of the health & safety file. Our Business Support Manager is hands on and highly trained in the development, management, reviewing of essential documents required to form part of the health & safety file. This process ensures that projects are manned effectively from the start. The HSO can then focus on the client expectations from the very beginning of the project ensuring the site remains compliant. This allows our HSO’s to be onsite regularly monitoring the working environment and report any safety observations to the clients management teams.
Qocept have a robust and flexible Business Management System to fit any customer needs for the provision of onsite Health & Safety.
We have staff available for short notice deployment to ensure health and safety provision is maintained on our projects.
