SPARKSAFE ARRIVES ON THE MAINLAND

I saw the announcement at the Elex show in Harrogate that NAPIT had formed a partnership with Sparksafe. I assume all NAPIT registered contractors will gain automatic status for the License to Practice without needing the qualifications for direct membership?

I did hear that a well known rail contractor walked away from a contract as they did not have enough operatives that met the LtP criteria.

I am thinking that if it did gain traction a lot of contractors would be in the brown stuff as they would no longer be able to use cheap unqualified labour.

Google Sparksafe to see what it is all about. They don't seem to have many members at the moment.

Hello Zs,

you said:

"Because, I think that time served or real skill is a gold badge. I have a vacancy - Send me a time-served-self-employed any day of the week. I will look at the CV to see how long the self-employed bit was."

Never were truer words spoken Zs. It is difficult to gauge experience just by paper certificates. I know brain surgeons and rocket scientists who struggle to change batteries in a smoke alarm.
