Many small and medium size companies cannot afford a full
time health and safety officer and do not have the time to get involved in
the detailed legislative requirements. More companies are turning to
consultants like ourselves as the only cost-effective way of complying with
the law, thus avoiding compensation claims, legal costs and lost work.
The UK’s Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations 1999 defines the
responsibilities of senior management to adequately resource safety concerns
& appoint a competent person to assist in minimising associated workplace
risks so far as is reasonably practicable.
