Pest Control and Contractor Oversight

A half day to manage pest control when it is entrusted to a contractor: what the contract must provide for, what the auditor checks, how to read visit reports and trends, and what actions to request. Intended for quality and hygiene managers, it relies on your contract, your bait station layout plan and your latest reports.

Frequently asked questions

Is the training aimed at the contractor’s technicians?

No. It is aimed at the client company, which remains responsible for pest control on its site. It teaches the company to demand, read and verify the contractor’s work.

What does the auditor look at on this topic?

The contract, the technicians’ competence, the up-to-date layout plan, product sheets, visit reports, trend analysis and the follow-up given to recommendations. The auditor also observes the condition of buildings during the workshop walk.

Why only a half day?

The subject is centred on managing the contractor. Participants who also need to cover the site’s general hygiene can attend the day “Good Hygiene and Manufacturing Practices”.
