Establishing and maintaining consistent Health and Safety products is challenging for many businesses. We recognise that achieving full compliance can be very costly and time consuming. We have developed a range of services which are sector and client specific.

We provide assistance in the formulation of all Health & Safety Policies and crucially we can carry out all Risk Assessments with the Owner / Manager (Responsible Person) providing the necessary advice on any Control Actions which may arise from the Risk Assessments.

Our services are based on the guidelines issued under the ‘HSE statement to the external providers of Health & Safety assistance’ and ‘Getting specialist help with Health & Safety’.

Our services are always:

• Appropriate
  As it is based on actual risk assessments relevant to your business.
• Tailored
  Our documentation is based on the detailed Risk Assessments completed for your business.
• Sensible
  We provide practical advice and support on control measures and where appropriate a management action plan and, uniquely, we follow up with regular contact and further visits where appropriate.

We seek to take the hassle out of compliance and allow you to concentrate on running your business.

We provide a range of other key benefits to our clients dependant on the service level chosen:

• 24 Hour Helpline

  In the event of a serious incident or accident on site resulting in a visit from the Health & Safety Executive, we provide expert advice at no extra charge.
