One of those tools is the DISA Contractors Consortium (DCC). The DISA Contractors Consortium is a specialized safety program that manages the workplace safety requirements that vary across industrial owners and operators, safety councils, and regulatory agencies. With over 20,000 participating contractor companies in this program, the DCC is the largest and most diversified contractor compliance program of its kind. Another benefit: DISA eliminates the logistical work of managing a program at no cost to the owners.
DISA's Contractors Consortium (DCC)
What is DISA's Contractors Consortium?
The DISA Contractors Consortium (DCC) manages the multitude of workplace screening requirements that contractor companies must meet to work at safety-focused worksites across several industrial sectors. The DCC manages reciprocal policies and programs tailored to the special requirements of various owners, operators, safety councils, and federal regulatory agencies. This unique ability reduces job-hopping and mitigates the need for multiple programs. The DCC has more than 20,000 participating contractor companies in the consortium and continues to make compliance easier to manage and cheaper to maintain.
