R Brampton Ltd

Joint Industry Board Grading (JIB)

The Joint Industry Board (JIB) acts to create smooth workings and relations within the electrical contracting industry. A minimum requirement of training and qualifications are required to be graded by the JIB (see below).

The JIB also aims to act within the public interest as well as for those of the professional electrical contractors by helping to create a working environment which stimulates and encourages further improvements and progress within the profession. 

This is achieved partly through the regulation and control of employment and productive capacity within the electrical contractor industry and by establishing requirements and expectations for levels of skill and proficiency.

The JIB also encourages further education and development for individuals.
