The Civil Engineering Contractors Association Scotland (CECA Scotland) is the representative body for companies who work day-to-day to deliver, upgrade, and maintain Scotland’s infrastructure.
With around 100 members across Scotland, CECA Scotland represents companies who together carry out an estimated 80 per cent of all civil engineering activity in our country, in the key sectors of transport, energy, communications, waste and water.
Few industries shape our nation in the way civil engineering does. Our members drive Scotland’s economic growth, working across the roads, rail, water and power sectors; delivering the infrastructure businesses and communities in Scotland rely on.
We stand up for the interests of our members and maintain close relationships with clients, government, colleges and representative bodies in the construction sector, to ensure our members’ expertise is shared as widely as possible.
We are proud of the work our members do and work every day to promote their achievements, to promote the exciting opportunities in our sector and to persuade decision makers to invest in infrastructure; in the building bricks of our future.
CECA Scotland’s priorities are shaped by our members. Every year we sit down and work out what the key challenges are in the civil engineering sector and agree what areas should be pursued over the next year. Our current priorities are:
Represent members in national safety forums such as HSE, Site Safe Scotland, Safety Groups, and SHAD.
Advocate with clients to ensure alignment on health, safety, and wellbeing priorities.
Share best practices and up-to-date safety information with members.
Promote initiatives that support members’ physical, mental, and financial wellbeing.
We work in close partnership with CECA National , based in London, CECA Wales and CECA regions in England, ensuring that members in Scotland have a voice right across the UK.
