How we can help
Risk Assessment
Effective risk assessments are the foundation of any successful health and safety strategy. We conduct thorough evaluations of your workplace to identify potential hazards, assess risks, and provide clear recommendations for mitigating them. Our goal is to help you create a safe working environment while ensuring compliance with all relevant health and safety regulations.
Alternatively, we can deliver training to your staff to equip them to carryout risk assessments on behalf of your organisation.

Contractor Management

The use of contractors is very common. Many businesses use contractors to supplement their own workforce. Contractors are frequently used for specialist, and often hazardous, jobs. Contractors need to be managed properly to ensure they work safely. We have many years’ experience of working with large numbers of contractors on behalf of our clients.

Manual Handling
Manual handling tasks—such as lifting, carrying, and moving objects—pose a significant risk of injury in many workplaces. Our manual handling training and assessments ensure that your team understands the best practices to safely lift and move items. We help you implement safe handling techniques to prevent musculoskeletal injuries and improve employee wellbeing.

Display Screen Equipment (DSE)
With increasing reliance on computers and digital devices in the workplace, it’s essential to manage risks associated with display screen equipment (DSE). We provide DSE assessments to evaluate workstation ergonomics and recommend improvements to reduce strain, discomfort, and long-term health risks like repetitive strain injuries or eye strain.

Health and Safety Policies
Clear and concise health and safety policies are crucial for establishing safety standards across your A health and safety policy sets out your general approach and commitment, together with the arrangements you have put in place for managing health and safety in your business. It is a unique document that says who does what, when and how.
A documented health and safety policy is a legal requirement if you employ five or more people. If you have fewer than five employees you do not have to write anything down, though it is considered useful to do so.
Our advisors are well versed in producing safety documentation and would be more than happy to work with your staff to ensure you have comprehensive systems that are formally documented in a manner that satisfies the law and provides value to your business.

Safe Systems of Work
Safe Systems of Work should include the findings of risk assessments and are incorporated in procedures or method statements.
Having a documented, step-by-step explanation of how to complete a task safely will go a long way towards maintaining good standards of health and safety.
Safe Systems of Work make your business more efficient, providing clear and concise instructions that can be used as a basis for training new employees and a reference point for the more experienced.
We can work closely with your employees to produce user friendly, step-by-step, Safe Systems of Work, based on our observations of your work processes and/or incorporating your risk assessments, policies, procedures or training materials.
