Health & Safety Services

Commercial Clients

We want to become a member of your team, working with you to ensure that everything your company does complies with the relevant legislation.
 
Commercial Clients
This will result in a safer working environment for you, your staff and any visitors to your premises, and - probably - a happier workforce.
 
While acknowledging that you must have a total commitment to health and safety at all levels of your company, and that you have identified directors and managers to have the overall responsibility for health and safety matters, we can effectively become your own health and safety department.
 
We can provide our health and safety services on an "as required" basis, however we find that the majority of our clients prefer to take out an annual contract which is written specifically for them and is designed to meet their requirements.
 
The contract, as well as including all day - to - day advice, can include any of the following topics, according to your needs:
 

Risk Assessments

  • We can conduct an initial risk assessment and give a detailed report explaining any problem areas. For example we are able to conduct an assessment for all workstations and an assessment of any potential hazards such as slips, trips and falls.
     
  • We can produce a fire risk assessment for your premises - this is a legal requirement.
     
  • We can inspect your premises annually and provide a detailed report.

Control Systems

  • We can prepare all of the necessary paperwork, such as your company safety policy, safe-working procedures and any other documents required to operate the procedures.
     
  • We can produce a risk assessment manual, which is required for all hazardous activities.
     
  • We can advise on all health and safety notices that are required to be held on your premises.
     
  • We can keep your policies under constant review and ensure that they comply with any changes to safety legislation or standards.

External liaison

  • We will liaise with the Health and Safety Executive, the Environmental Health Department and any other enforcing authority on your behalf.

Planning Supervisor

  • If you are organising any building work which falls within the scope of the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 1994 (CDM), you could be classified as a "client". If so you must appoint a Planning Supervisor to check that your project is designed and managed safely. This is a role that we can fulfil on your behalf.

Accident Investigation

  • We will investigate the circumstances of any accidents and ensure that the formal reports are submitted to the enforcing authorities.
     
  • Our reports will include advice to change any working practices to ensure that there is no repetition of the incident.

Ongoing Advice

  • We are always available to deal with any health and safety queries.
     
  • We will update you on any changes in legislation or standards through our regular newsletter
