ZJA has become one of the first architectural studios in the Netherlands to be certified for step 3 on the Safety Culture Ladder, an initiative that uses 5 steps to measure safety consciousness in a company, and which stimulates an awareness of safety at work among its personnel.
Achieving step 3 certification from the Safety Culture Ladder is exceptional for an architecture bureau. The external auditor was impressed not just by the safety consciousness within our bureau but by the strong and open company culture at ZJA. It is therefore an achievement of which we are very proud.
Rudo Koot, architect at ZJA
Safe and healthy working environment
At workplaces with major safety hazards, such as building sites, safety consciousness is literally a matter of life and death. But certification is also essential for the businesses with which we collaborate.
Rudo Koot says, ‘It’s important that the Safety Culture Ladder can be applied all along the chain and that when it comes to safety, cooperation between all partners can be optimal.
So we are looking forward to continuing to devote ourselves to an optimal level of safety within our office, our projects and the construction sites we visit.’
