If ViA (Safety in Construction Governance Code) applies to you, a certain level of health and safety is mandatory. Click here to see which requirements your organisation is expected to meet.
If you are active in the construction sector but ViA does not apply to your organisation, certification against the Safety Culture Ladder is still wise.
SCL promotes health and safety in the construction sector
Health and safety must become a top priority. To improve health and safety in the construction sector, participants in the Safety in Construction Governance Code (Governance Code Veiligheid in de Bouw) have agreed that a certain level of health and safety must be mandatory in tenders and contracts. This has been summarised in the Safety in Tendering Document ( Veiligheid in Aanbestedingen (ViA)). The Safety Culture Ladder is used as an instrument to promote ViA in the construction sector.
