SCC, SCCP and SCP — certification preparation under SCC-VAZ 2021

ADLER CertConsulting supports technical companies and personnel service providers in preparing for SCC, SCCP or SCP under the current rule set SCC-VAZ 2021 (the German SCC rule set governing the SCC, SCCP and SCP certification programmes).

Overview

SCC certification advisory begins with the question of which company programme suits the activities and the client’s requirement. SCC and SCCP are aimed at companies providing technical services; SCP is intended for personnel service providers. ADLER CertConsulting reviews the existing SGU (safety, health and environmental protection) organisation, the required personnel records and key figures and supports implementation through to the independent certification audit.

Programme variants and classification

SCC-VAZ 2021 combines requirements for the operational management of safety, health and environmental protection with key figures and proof of qualification. Which variant applies depends, among other things, on the type of company, the activities, the deployment of personnel and the specific client requirement. The classification is therefore checked before the project begins, based on the current rule set and with a view to the intended certification body.

SGU organisation and gap analysis

ADLER CertConsulting records the existing SGU organisation and compares it with the relevant checklist. Areas considered include responsibilities, risk assessments, briefings, qualifications, occupational health provision, incidents, inspections, procurement, subcontractor management and SGU key figures. An action plan is derived from the gaps.

Company certification and personnel qualification

Company certification and personnel qualification are separate procedures. Documents 016, 017 and 018 relate to the training or examination of operational staff and operational managers. These records form part of the operational SCC requirements but are not company certificates. The ADLER Academy offers the corresponding training and examination options; recognised personnel examinations are carried out by the accredited body responsible for the certification of persons.

Existing certificates and personnel records are checked against the current VAZ programme documents and the requirements of the intended client.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between SCC, SCCP and SCP?

They are different company programmes within SCC-VAZ 2021. SCC and SCCP apply to technical service companies in different fields of application; SCP is intended for personnel service providers. The appropriate variant is determined on the basis of the current programme rules and the client requirement.

Are documents 016, 017 and 018 SCC company certificates?

No. The documents relate to the SGU training or personnel examination of operational staff and operational managers. In addition, the company goes through its own certification procedure.

Which existing SCC records need to be checked?

Company certificates, training records and personnel certificates are assessed against the current VAZ programme, their validity and the specific client requirement.

Does ADLER CertConsulting certify our company?

No. ADLER CertConsulting supports analysis, build-up and audit preparation. An independent certification body carries out the audit and decides on the certificate.
