ForeFront Certification’s COP 119 page outlines how COP 119 (Security) and its advanced variant COP 119 Plus serve as critical codes of practice aimed at strengthening labor supply chain integrity and operational excellence within the UK security and events sector. By requiring adherence to standards such as BS 7858 and BS 10800, the certification ensures that organizations maintain rigorous security screening, proper SIA license management, compliance with wage and working time regulations, right‑to‑work checks, and correct employment status and PAYE procedures. Organizations that successfully attain COP 119 or COP 119 Plus certification demonstrate their commitment to industry best practices and legal obligations, thereby reducing risks related to worker exploitation, licensing lapses, and noncompliance in a sector where reliable service and public trust are paramount. This certification is especially pertinent for companies supplying labor to security and event operations, offering them an audit‑based route to validate their operational standards and distinguish themselves in a competitive market.
