The SSIP Forum was set up with representatives from contractors’ Health and Safety Assessment Scheme (CHAS), Constructionline, Exor and the National House-Building Council (NHBC) with the support of the Health and Safety Executive. SIPP acts as an umbrella organisation to facilitate mutual recognition between health and safety assessment schemes wherever it is practicable to do so.
Following a robust and rigorous assessment, AYP were certified with Constructionline Gold in April 2025.
Following the achievement of Constructionline Gold, our business was further assessed and achieved Acclaim SSIP certification in April 2025.
Acclaim Health & Safety SSIP certification, has been renamed to Once For All Health & Safety.
Our SSIP certification has a new look, and a new name, but the accreditation remains the same.

Where a construction project must be notified, the client must submit a notice in writing to the relevant enforcing authority.
Pre-construction information provides the health and safety information needed by:
(a) designers and contractors who are bidding for work on the project, or who have already been appointed to enable them to carry out their duties;
(b) principal designers and principal contractors in planning, managing, monitoring and coordinating the work of the project.
Pre-construction information provides a basis for the preparation of the construction phase plan
A Design Risk Register is a live document used to log and mitigate the risks that have been identified on a project.
Regulation 5 requires formal appointment of the principal designer and the principal contractor. AYP has experience developing appointment letters and implementing them for PD and PC.
The client must ensure a construction phase plan is drawn up before the construction phase begins. For projects involving more than one contractor, the principal contractor is responsible for drawing up the plan or for making arrangements for it to be drawn up.
The health and safety file is defined as a file appropriate to the characteristics of the project, containing relevant health and safety information to be taken into account during any subsequent project.
Independent audits can be carried out to reassure duty holders of regulatory compliance and the presence of a positive health and safety culture.
