main content Health and Safety

Health and Safety is an important issue for employers and staff alike and is largely regulated by various laws and agreed codes of conduct. Any company with more than five employees is legally obliged to possess a comprehensive written health and safety policy. However, safe working practices need to be in place for every member of staff. We can give advice on how the Health and Safety at Work etc Act should be applied to your workplace. We inspect various work premises to ensure that they comply with legislation and investigate accidents in the workplace. Information about home safety however, is available on the Government's DTI (Department of Trade and Industry) website www.dti.gov.uk
