Stop the introduction of the CGCS Scheme by Capita

Petition Details

As a Gas Safe registered Engineer that worked hard to attain my qualifications, i think its absolutely obsurd that Capita are going to undermine all of our qualifications with this new 'voluntary' Scheme. They run Gas Safe already so this is a monumental, MULTI- MILLION £ MONEY MAKING SCHEME!!

Additional Information

This is to 'prove' that the CGCS registered engineers 'Go above and beyond the required health and safety requirements'... Essentially, they are trying to say that anyone not on the scheme is doing the bare minimum and the people willing to spend who knows how much on membership are 'safer' and 'more reliable' This is a multi million £ money making scheme that for now is 'voluntary' but watch for the media to get hold of it then everyone will want a CGCS registered engineer!! Total scam!!

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

This is a decision for Capita, not the UK Government or Parliament. In any case, it has been reported that Capita has decided not to continue with this scheme.

You could start a new petition asking for a ban on gas safety accreditations that are different from the mandatory Gas Safe Register.
