In detail

What we hold — and what it covers

Licence under § 25 of the Radiation Protection Act

The basis for work in other operators' radiation protection areas, including the reliability check and sabotage protection measures. Without this licence a contractor may not deploy its staff in a controlled area. It is therefore the precondition for all services under Nuclear Services.

SCP certification

The safety certificate for staffing providers follows the ISO standard for quality assurance, but its focus is on occupational safety. Our SCP certificate shows that COPLA Burg GmbH places great value on occupational safety, health protection and environmental management. We expressly do not claim a separate ISO 9001 certification.

Unlimited licence for temporary employment

We hold an unlimited licence under § 1 (1) of the German Temporary Employment Act. It is a precondition for every Temporary staffing and is produced on request.

Approval for work in radiation protection areas

We send the relevant approval on request. It adds the specific scope of work to the licence under § 25 StrlSchG.

Clearance certificates

On request we are happy to send you the current certificates:

Why there is no download area: These documents have validity dates. A PDF from the year before last on a website helps nobody — drop us a line and you will get the current version.

DIN standards, Eurocodes, the German construction contract procedures (VOB) and the HOAI fee scale for engineering services.

Welding

TIG, MIG, MAG

FAQ

On certificates and approvals

Are you certified to ISO 9001?

No, and we do not claim to be. Our SCP certificate follows the ISO standard for quality assurance, but its focus is on occupational safety. If you absolutely require ISO 9001, please tell us up front.

How do I get the clearance certificates?

On request by e-mail to info@coplaburg.de. We will send you the current versions from the tax office, the employers' liability insurance association and the health insurers.

Does the licence under § 25 StrlSchG apply to all your employees?

The licence applies to the company. For the individual, the reliability check, the radiation protection instruction, the occupational health checks and the dosimetry are added. Only together do they add up to authorised access.

Do you check your specialists' qualifications yourselves?

Yes. Procedure qualifications, certificates of competence and health check certificates are checked for validity before the assignment. At the plant an expired document is not a formality but a ban on entry.

Next step

Do you need a document for your supplier audit?

Just tell us which one — we send the current version, usually the same day.
