Providing guidance and support in health & safety

As an employer you have a legal duty to ensure as far as reasonably practical the health, safety and welfare in the workplace of your employees, and that the health and safety of those not in your employment are not exposed to risks to their health and safety. This requires you to have in place a health and safety policy and to make suitable and sufficient risk assessments. If you have 5 or more employees then these must be documented. There are no exemptions to health & safety, it applies to every employer including the self-employed; even if you work within a 'low risk' environment.

 

The Health & Safety Executive, local authority, Fire Brigade and more often now the landlord and your insurance company can request to see your health and safety policies and management system. Failure to comply is a generally a criminal offence.

 

H-ELP Systems can assist by ensuing that you comply with the health & safety law. We can provide poicies and procedures that meet the needs of your business, provide training and guidance and audit your system on a regular basis.
