Our Promise to You

The HealthSafety Qualified symbol is a promise that a company received our requirements, passed our test, and validated their inventory of personal protective equipment and safety supplies. It’s a promise that the certified company has committed to following HealthSafety Qualified Best Practices.

What We Cannot Promise

The HealthSafety Qualified symbol is not a promise of a company’s future performance of safety procedures or your actual satisfaction with that company’s performance in any way. We endeavor to perform the certification process accurately and without bias according to the description supplied by our organization. Furthermore, we believe that the HealthSafety Qualified Test is a fair representation of the qualifying company’s efforts regarding our HealthSafety Requirements at the time they passed the HealthSafety Qualified Test. Since we rely on multiple sources of information and each company’s performance can change over time, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of the information provided herewith. The content and materials provided are provided “As Is” and without warranties of any kind, either expressed or implied. Memberships, awards and affiliations are not independently verified. Under no circumstances, including but not limited to negligence, shall we be liable to you or any other entity for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages. The HealthSafety Qualified symbol does not mean that a certified company will meet every individual’s subjective markers for safety or satisfaction. We do not guarantee that you will not contract an illness from any worker at any company listed. We do not back our certification with a performance guarantee, thus you must make any claim directly to the company.

Prior to Visiting Your Home

Prior to entering your home, each worker will undergo a symptom check, perform a deep hand wash, put on a face mask and bring in disinfectant supplies.

Workers Inside Your Home

When inside your home, workers are required to wear face masks. Stopping face touching is one of the keys to reduce transmitting infections. Hair ties, hair nets or hats should be worn by each worker whose hair is long enough to get in their face. Facial tissues should be used by workers as a shield between their hand and face to prevent direct face touching.

To enhance ventilation in enclosed spaces, we recommend increasing air flow by opening windows and/or using a fan. When practical, workers will stand 6 feet away from you, and they’re required to wipe down any touched surface with disinfectant wipes.

When You Visit a Company

HealthSafety Qualified companies will wear face masks on request and wipe down surfaces with disinfectant wipes. Your health and safety come first. Why take chances on untrained or uncertified companies? Protect your health. Make sure you choose HealthSafety Qualified companies.
