Our Platinum Accreditation and what it means

CaSSOA accreditation is based on the assessment of a number of factors. These include site security (perimeter fencing, access control, exit/entry system, CCTV, alarms, fire protection) and on-site facilities. Accreditation is based on points, and assessed by an independent risk surveyor. Each category will attract points, and the more points received, the higher the award level attained.

· The Bronze Award is our entry level award. The site must meet our minimum security requirements, including perimeter protection and lockable gates.

· The Silver Award is a step up in security, as well as having the standard security measures in place, a silver accredited site has enhanced security in place such as CCTV and monitored entry and exit of the site.

· The Gold Award is the second highest award which can be achieved/ With these sites providing the highest levels of security you could expect to find BS Standard security features, comprehensive CCTV and alarm systems, and externally monitored systems.

· The Platinum Award is the highest level awarded to CaSSOA sites and demonstrates superior levels of security including BS Standard protection, externally monitored systems, asset tagging and full CCTV coverage.
