TURNOVER TEST: INTRODUCTION

NOTE: This paragraph serves as an introductory overview of the turnover test; for deeper coverage use the above links to information or action guides.

This module on the turnover test for certificate applications covers the application of the test, the use of the Turnover Test Application (TTA), and surrounding issues.

Particular areas covered are

• applying the tests

• evidence checks for 6 month tests

• checks on the validity of figures supplied for the tests

• explanations of the tests and terms involved.

The test is designed to be an objective first line filter of certificate applications and any failures are notified by a standard letter issued from one of the two Accounts Offices at Shipley and Cumbernauld.

Note that wholly owned subsidiaries of companies already holding a CIS certificate are exempt from the turnover test.

Applications failing the turnover test need not be submitted to the other certificate tests. This is the most straightforward form of refusal.
