Health and safety law can feel like a maze. We help you understand which regulations apply to your business, what you need to do about them, and how to show you've done it.
- Acting as your “competent person” for health and safety advice, which every employer is required to appoint
- Gap analysis against the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and the regulations that apply to you
- Accident investigation and RIDDOR reporting: what must be reported, by when, and how
- Support before, during and after an HSE or local authority visit
- Help responding to improvement or prohibition notices
- Preparing for insurer, client or tender health and safety questionnaires
The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 require every employer to have competent help in meeting their duties. Fines for health and safety offences are linked to company turnover and can be substantial, even for small firms. Getting it right early is far cheaper than putting it right later.
Please note: We provide professional health and safety advice. We are not solicitors and this is not legal advice. Where a matter needs a lawyer, we'll tell you.
