The area of law that employers dread the most has to be Health and Safety. It is potentially the one that can have the most dire consequences both for individuals and the company, but is usually the one that gets pushed down the list of priorities when people are busy. Not a good combination.

By spending time on understanding how your business works and by assigning a qualified advisor to you, we can design a Health and Safety system that best fits your working practices and business needs. It’s a combination of compliance and simplicity. The best system in the world is of little value if no one then works to it or understands its relevance.

A number of service visits are agreed with you for the term of our contract, during which we will work with you to make the necessary progress. We will keep you informed of new and proposed changes to legislation with regular electronic bulletins and copies of First Edition.

Realistically, Health and Safety is always a “work in progress” and our approach at First Business Support is to keep sufficient attention devoted to it without allowing it to impede business. Striking the right balance and responding to change is the key to gaining everyone’s support and keeping up to date.

This is not an area of law to be taken lightly. Accidents and incidents by their very nature will always occur and not just to someone else. We aim to help you to minimise the risk and make sure that, should the need arise, you are in excellent shape to defend yourself and your business.
