Working to British Standards and claiming compliance has always gone unregulated and unchecked. From around autumn in 2021 the windscreen technicians will need to be assessed and demonstrate competence to be able to claim to be working to British Standards. Working to these new British Standards will mean that true windscreen professionals will attend to your vehicle taking into account the position of windscreen mounted technologies, ADAS and HUD exclusion zones.

Many other factors will need to be considered including 100% UV resistance during the repair process and consumables are quality assured. With the advancements of vehicle safety features full consideration needs to be given to when to repair, how to repair and where not to repair. Would you have a gas engineer work on your gas boiler who was not trained, assessed and certificated?

GT is currently working towards being able to provide full training assessment with our training centre opening soon where assessments can be carried out with multiple choice examinations leading to a five year certificate of bsi compliance.
