Risk Assessment Service
Every employer is under a statutory duty to arrange for a "competent person" to assess all risks arising at the workplace, or created by work activities. Some risks are of a general nature, but others will need to be considered against more specialised legislation.
The more common subjects that give rise to an assessment duty are:
- General day to day risks (Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations)
- Exposure to substances that may damage health COSHH
- Workstations where VDUs are used
- Where lifting or carrying tasks are undertaken
- Noisy environments which could cause damage to hearing
- Asbestos
- Pregnant or young worker risk assessment
- Selection and use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
How can we help?
We can carry out risk assessments on your behalf. Our assessment may take the form of a general risk review, or may involve a more detailed analysis of a specific hazard.
- Issue a report of how well you comply legally
- Design the necessary procedures
- Prepare or update your risk assessment records
- Identify and carry out any staff training required
All of these services and many more can be called upon as and when you need them via our Support Service
