Health & Safety Policies
Businesses of all sizes, across all industries, must ensure they operate within the Health & Safety Regulations Act.
This includes having a Health & Safety policy and statement in place that is issued to all employees.
Your business has a legal responsibility to ensure the health, welfare and safety of your employees and other people affected by your business's activities, such as customers and suppliers.
Having robust health & safety policies in place that adhere to HSE guidelines will help you achieve this.
There are a wide range of health & safety policies that your company may require. These are usually dependant on various aspects of the business including: any products you may work with, the type of services you offer, the industry you work within, and your own company size and location.
