Central Approval is a voluntary program for companies involved in construction projects. It can make it easier to demonstrate to customers and clients that the company has the relevant expertise, procedures, and operates with integrity.
In a nutshell: The certification can strengthen confidence in the company, but it does not automatically entitle the company to contracts and does not replace liability in individual construction projects.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is central approval required by law?
No. Participation in the program is voluntary. However, the company must still meet the requirements that apply to the responsibility it assumes in each individual construction project.
Do all employees have to take an HSE course?
No, not automatically. The general manager has specific training requirements under the Working Environment Act. Other training is determined by role, job duties, and risk.
