Why You Need Health and Safety Consultancy
⚖️ Legal Compliance
The SHWW Act 2005 places duties on employers to manage health and safety. Non-compliance can result in HSA inspections, improvement notices, prohibition notices, fines, and prosecution.
🛡️ Employee Protection
Effective health and safety management protects your employees from injury and illness. A safe workplace improves morale, reduces absence, and demonstrates you value your people.

Health and Safety Consultancy FAQs
Do I need a safety statement?
Yes. The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 requires every employer to prepare a written safety statement. This must be based on risk assessment and specify how you manage health and safety in your workplace.
What is a competent person?
A competent person has sufficient training, knowledge, and experience to advise on health and safety matters. The General Application Regulations 2007 require employers to appoint one or more competent persons. Our CMIOSH consultants can fulfil this role.
How often should risk assessments be reviewed?
Risk assessments should be reviewed regularly and updated when significant changes occur. Reviews should follow any accidents, near misses, changes in work activities, new equipment, or changes in legislation. Annual review is recommended as a minimum.
What qualifications do your consultants have?
Our health and safety consultants are Chartered Members of the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (CMIOSH). This is the gold standard qualification for health and safety professionals, requiring degree-level education and substantial practical experience.
Do you provide health and safety training?
Yes. We offer a full range of on-site health and safety courses and online courses with CPD certification, including manual handling, working at height, and safety representative training.
Can you help if we have an HSA inspection?
Yes. We can assist with HSA inspection preparation, accompany you during inspections, help respond to improvement or prohibition notices, and implement required changes. Early engagement with a consultant can help prevent enforcement action.
