A health and safety audit highlights the main priorities for effective action and helps you to fulfil the legal requirements for monitoring. An audit provides you with a snapshot of where you are with health and safety and steers you towards legal compliance. The audit report we prepare for you contains clear, concise advice and recommendations as to the actions you may need to take.
Audits look at systems and the way they work and should not be confused with inspections which look at physical conditions.
We can also carry out an annual review and revision so that you can be sure that it will always be up to date with legislation and your current working practices.
Documentation
Policy documents, statements, compliance
Do you need a Health and Safety Policy?
The Health and Safety at Work Act requires every employer to have a health and safety policy and also that employers with 5 or more employees must have a written record of their policy.
Whether you are starting from scratch or reviewing a current health and safety policy, we will consult with you about your business to design a bespoke health and safety policy. This will allow you to achieve your legal obligation. The policy document will specify your strategy for achieving compliance and best practice providing clients with the security that you are doing the very best to protect staff and satisfy their legal requirements.
Your tailored health and safety policy will be produced following a thorough process of premises inspection, assessment of procedures, document audits and the identification of training requirements.
