Safety Systems
Keeping employees safe should be top of the agenda for any business owner. Let us assess and manage your safety systems.
Safety Systems
Every business has an obligation to manage the health and safety risks within its workplace. A risk assessment will identify those hazards that could have the potential to cause injury to your employees, the risk of that actually happening, followed by the preventative control measures you can make to reduce the risk to as low as is reasonably practicable. Implementing a risk assessment will protect you, your team and ensure regulatory compliance under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
With the necessary skills, knowledge and experience to manage health and safety, we can help you through the complete risk assessment process. The process requires us to identify potential hazards, who could be affected and by what means. The study then evaluates the risks, combined with suitable and sufficient control measures to reduce those risks. We then record our findings and present to your senior management team with a view to implementation. Note that once preventative measures are in place, these should be regularly reviewed and updated when required.
COSHH assessment
Does your workplace house hazardous substances? If yes, we can conduct a COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) assessment which focuses on the hazards and risks of the substance being used.
Safety improvement advice
As well as offering risk assessments, we can also advise on areas where we feel safety improvements could be made. It's crucial that you ensure your business offers a safe working environment and that you follow guidelines and procedures to ensure compliance. These guidelines and regulations can be hard to understand and this is where we can assist to break them down and make them easier to understand in order for you to be compliant.
CDM guidance
Any works being undertaken that involve construction related trades come under the CDM regulations. If you are a working within the construction industry, we can help you with the CDM (Construction, Design and Management) regulations which are in place to safeguard anyone working on a construction project.
Part of these regulations involves ensuring that only those people with the required qualifications are responsible for the planning and safe implementation of procedures throughout the duration of the project - this includes site inspections and the production of safety related documentation.
If your business needs help with CDM compliance from the production of the Construction Phase Plan to safety assessments and the safety file then please get in touch.
