Consultancy
We work successfully with all sizes of business from small businesses through to multinational companies. Each business is different and we tailor our approach to suit your needs.
Under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, employers must carry out a suitable and sufficient assessment of risks. We can assist clients by carrying out general as well as specific risk assessments. We can also conduct accident investigations and liaise with H&S Inspectors on your behalf to minimise exposure. In the event of a serious incident or emergency, we can provide support and assistance at every step.

Auditing
We carry out independent audits of workplaces and processes so you can measure how well you are meeting legal requirements and established industry standards. This includes auditing accredited quality management systems, as well as in-house procedures. Whilst the audit report clearly sets out any additional control measures required, audits may be tailored to address any particular concerns.
With regular auditing potential problems may be highlighted before they arise and enable suitable action to prevent injuries or ill health to employees and customers. Additionally, potential problems can be resolved in advance of routine visits by Health and Safety Inspectors.
We are experienced in conducting liability surveys for insurers with respect to Employer's Liability, Product Liability and Public Liability to provide a risk profile. We can also investigate claims about alleged workplace accidents and dangerous occurrences.
