Enquire Now Planning for Health and Safety
There are two important requirements that Peak HSE can help your business with.
Firstly, you will need a Health and Safety Policy if you employ more than 5 people.
Secondly, the law requires that you plan for Health and Safety to develop arrangements that really work.
By law businesses should:
- write a Health and Safety Policy
- define what you want to achieve, i.e.. how you will ensure that your employees and others are kept healthy and safe at work and then develop and implement plans accordingly
- determine what might cause harm to people and whether you are doing enough or need to do more to prevent that harm (undertake suitable and sufficient risk assessment)
- prioritise the improvements you may need to make
- determine who will be responsible for health and safety tasks, what they should do, when and with what results
- have access to, or appoint a competent person
- implement controls, including training
- decide how you will measure and review whether you have achieved what you set out to do
Peak HSE will help you with this documentation to ensure that it is up-to-date and in line with current legislation.
