A Code You Can Trust: Safehouse's Code of Conduct

Navigating the complex world of regulations and standards can be daunting. Safehouse’s Code of Conduct serves as a beacon, guiding members to comply with South African legislation, international standards, and industry-best practices.

The Safehouse Code of Conduct is more than a set of rules; it’s a commitment to excellence, safety, and integrity. It outlines our shared principles and responsibilities, and here’s what it means for you:

  1. Compliance with South African Legislation: We adhere to all local laws, regulations, and standards. This ensures that our members’products and services meet the highest quality and safety benchmarks.

  2. Alignment with International Standards: Where local standards are lacking, we turn to globally recognised standards. This allows us to maintain a world-class approach to electrical safety.

  3. Development and Adoption of Recognized Standards: In the absence of local or international standards, we actively work to develop and comply with standards recognised by authoritative organisations. This proactive approach sets us apart.

  4. Promotion of Fair Competition: We believe in a level playing field. Our members commit to fair competition, honest advertising, and transparent pricing. This fosters trust and confidence in our industry.

  5. Responsibility Towards Consumers: Our commitment extends to consumers. We ensure that all information, labelling, and advertising are clear, accurate, and in line with legal requirements.

  6. Ongoing Commitment to Improvement: Our members continuously strive to improve their products, services, and practices. This relentless pursuit of excellence defines who we are as an organisation.

  7. Cooperation and Collaboration: We actively collaborate with regulators, authorities, and other stakeholders. This cooperation amplifies our voice and influence in shaping a safer electrical landscape.

By embracing the Safehouse Code of Conduct, our members become part of a community that values excellence, integrity, and above all, safety. It’s not just about what we do; it’s about who we are.
