Join ATLAS

ATLAS is the recognised voice of the steeplejack and lightning protection industry and represents its views to Government, leading client organisations and other key stakeholders with the aim of improving the business environment and raising standards. It is a member organisation of Build UK, which is the leading representative organisation for the UK construction industry and contributes to the Access Industry Forum (AIF) to represent the views of the work at height industry.

ATLAS is at the forefront of the development of technical and performance standards with input into British, European and World standard committees. With its own committees dedicated to earthing, lightning protection and safety and access, ATLAS produces guidance specifically for members, providing them with access to technical information as soon as it becomes available. Members also have the opportunity to receive technical support on their own projects from our Committees’ Chairs.

Through our membership of Build UK, ATLAS members have access to free telephone helplines that provide expert support on employment, health and safety and, legal and contractual issues.

All employees of ATLAS members in the UK, Ireland and the Channel Islands have access to an Employee Assistance Programme provided by Health Assured.  The Programme’s helpline offers confidential advice on mental health, legal matters, substance abuse, debt and many more.

ATLAS works in partnership with a number of organisations to offer essential business products and services, often at preferential rates. The current discounts include:

• Free credit checks available from Top Service
• Access to BSI Online with a read only subscription to up to 50 British Standards useful to ATLAS members.

ATLAS facilitates collaborative working across the industry and the rest of the supply chain to discuss key issues, improve services and promote lightning protection and steeplejacking. There are regular meetings and events for members, which offer excellent networking opportunities in an open and relaxed environment.
