VCU certification

VCU (Safety and Health Checklist for Temporary Work Organisations) certification is a standard specifically aimed at safety and health within temporary work organisations. VCU certification shows that a temporary employment organisation is actively committed to ensuring safe and healthy working conditions for temporary workers working in high-risk sectors.

What is VCU certification?

VCU certification comprises a set of standards and guidelines aimed at ensuring safety and health in temporary agency situations. These include implementing an effective safety and health policy, providing adequate instructions to temporary workers, and regularly evaluating and improving safety measures. The VCU certificate applies to temporary employment organisations that supply staff to companies in sectors with increased safety risks.

Benefits for staffing organisations

Achieving VCU certification offers significant advantages for temporary employment organisations. First, it strengthens the organisation's position in the labour market by demonstrating that health and safety are priorities. It increases the confidence of clients and temporary workers, which can lead to an increased demand for the temporary organisation's services.

VCU and tenders

For tenders in sectors with increased safety risks, VCU certification is often a requirement. Clients want to be sure that the temporary workers they deploy have a safe working environment. VCU certification is therefore a distinguishing factor and can positively influence decision-making in tenders.
