Health and safety has become a big issue. It has been embraced by some and scorned by others. However, more and more businesses are now required to prove that they provide a safe and hazardous free environment for their clientele, employees and or sub-contractors.
Legislation exist in the form of The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 2003, and it is your responsibility to ensure that you are preventing people from being harmed at work or becoming ill through work. The legislation further states that we must not put ourselves; other workers or the public in danger. The legislation applies to all businesses irrespective of size.
We will carryout an audit of your business and requirements and assist you drafting up your policy and manual, basically prepare policies and procedures that you need to implement in your business.
The audit will consist of a total risk assessment and should a method statement be required then we will assist you with that too.
It is important that your business meets the requirements and demands as stated by legislation.
9 times out of 10 most of the legislation will not affect the way you are currently conducting your business and should not prove to be a financial strain on the business either. It will make you alert and conscientious to another part of your business and protect your staff, the general public and ultimately you.
