Health & Safety Policy and Management Systems

What is a Health and Safety Management Plan?

A Health and Safety policy details the company's commitment to health and safety, who is responsible for health and safety and how it will be managed, and the responsibilities of company employees in terms of health and safety.

The management system will include risk assessments, accident reporting, fire safety, manual handling, hazardous substances etc.  It may also include safety manuals, safe systems of work or method statements. It will be freely available to all employees and the business services and suppliers support providers. If you have an enquiry please fill out the form below.

 

Why do I need a Health and Safety System? The Health and Safety at Work Act 2015, places a “duty of care” on business owners, directors, management to provide for a balanced framework to secure the Health and Safety of workers and workplaces by:   Protecting workers and other persons against harm to their health, safety and welfare by eliminating or minimizing risks arising from work or from prescribed high risk plant / machinery, hazardous materials / substances. Promoting the provision of advice, information, education and training in relation to work Health and Safety. Providing a framework for continuous improvement and progressively higher standards for work Health and safety.
