Private gas sage registration

[fchris17]

Hi All.

I have been corgi registered through a large company for a number of years now and I’m now gas safe registered with them for this year.
I was aware that with corgi to work privately I had to pay for a private registration even though I was registered through my company.

Does anyone know if this is still the case with the gas safe register or are these lot a bunch of exploiters as well????


its so frustrating that you can be 100% legal, qualified and registered to work on one job, then move to another and then be illegal.

Your registration is with the company. Why should that cover you for work outside of company time? Your company pay the registration fee.

Its just that the sole reason the registration exists is to make sure that your competent,
whoevers paying them to say that you are shouldnt come into it. once they have said yuo are competant why should anyone pay a second to time for them to say you are again

I do agree with fchris if your registered and competentyor obviosly qualified to work on gas however from an employers point of view why should he pay for your registration so you can do privates
the whole structure of registration is wieghted towards larger companies why do british gas pay so much less per operative than a one man band
every operative should pay the same and it should be the operative who pays not the company
if you work for a company and drive as part of your job the company doesnt pay for your licence to drive which in case any of you hadnt noticed is now renewable at a cost every few years
