Risk Assessment
It is a legal requirement for organisations with 5 or more staff to carry out documented health and safety risk assessments of all of their significant hazards.
Fountain Safety Solutions Ltd can carry out your risk assessments for you;
Certain specific hazards require a special risk assessment in a specific format (click on the links for further information):
- Manual handling activities require a manual handling risk assessment that considers the tasks being carried out, the loads being handled, the work environment and the individuals involved.
- New legislation requires every non-domestic premise to carry out a fire risk assessment his follows a similar 5 step approach as described above, but the assessment should focus on the 3 elements required for fire to start – heat, fuel and oxygen.
- Hazardous substances require a specific COSHH risk assessment obtaining the safety data sheet alone does not comply with the law.
- A display screen equipment risk assessment should be carried out on every computer user.
Fountain Safety Solutions Ltd can assist with all of these issues and may others. Businesses in need of risk assessments may also require a health and safety policy and a health and safety manual.
