Corporate Manslaughter Read All About It!

Out of date H & S Policies? New policy required? At risk in court? Got a generic policy but need a tailored one?

The Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 (HSWA) section 2(3) requires that anyone employing five or more persons must:

1. Prepare a written statement of policy
2. Set out their organisation and arrangements for implementing policy
3. Revise and update the policy as necessary
4. Bring the policy and arrangements to the attention of all employees

LRB Consulting provides a simple and common sense approach to developing a health and safety policy that is relevant to your business.

Suitable documentation is an essential part of the management of Health & Safety and is also a legal requirement. Without these documents and records it can be difficult, or even impossible, for a Company to demonstrate that it has met its Health & Safety obligations.

It is not enough merely to have a Health & Safety Policy. Recent cases have shown that it is important to be able to show that the policy is effective at protecting the Health & Safety of employees and of other persons who may be affected by the Company's undertakings.
