Our selection process
QubeGB subcontractors and suppliers are selected from an approved database after successful completion of our strict prequalification process. Those selected are measured and reviewed for competency, safety, quality and value for money on a regular basis.
We enter into a Subcontractor Charter with all approved core subcontractors, which records a willingness of both parties to work in a team environment for the benefit of both parties and our clients.
Our focus on Health & Safety
All subcontractors must comply with our stringent Health & Safety requirements and induction processes. These requirements follow UK legislation and Approved Codes of Practice, and an assessment of risk is conducted prior to site commencement to minimise hazards and reduce the risk of accident and injury.
Health & Safety is a QubeGB priority:
- In 2009, we were awarded the OHSAS18001 certification for Occupational Health & Safety Management by the British Standards Institute (BSI).
- In 2010, we qualified for SAFEcontractor accreditation, the industry's benchmark for Health and Safety standards.
- Health & Safety training is provided to Qube employees, subcontractors and suppliers at every level to ensure it remains a top priority of our business
- Toolbox health & safety training talks are carried out on a monthly basis, and each site has a weekly Health & Safety meeting
- Company-wide Health & Safety performance reviews are conducted quarterly
