SCC - Safety Certificate Contractors

Since the 1990s, the Processing and Application department has been in charge of SCC, a procedure that certifies occupational safety management systems taking into account relevant (occupational) safety, health and environmental protection (SHE) aspects. The aim is to increase the safety awareness of the employees of partner companies, combined with a reduction in the frequency of accidents. In the course of the change of the DAkkS regulation concept, the VAZ Verband akkreditierter Zertifizierungsgesellschaften e.V. has taken over the program ownership in 2021. DGMK accompanies the transfer of the system.

Since 2022, the conversions of accreditations and certifications according to 'SCC-VAZ 2021' have been running. As of 30.04.2023, the transition period of the new program owner ended in the management system area. In the area of SHE personnel, the transition period still runs until 2026.
