Health, Safety and Environmental Legislation is potentially a minefield. At OHS we are able to provide you with the tools to firstly select what is appropriate to you, and then deem what is required from you and then implement procedures to ensure practical management of this works for you and your employees. Generally the two main pieces of legislation that will affect you and your business are:

 

All employers have a legal obligation under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 to “ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare at work of all his employees”. 

 

And under The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations:  

Every employer shall make a suitable and sufficient assessment of -

 

(a) The risks to the health and safety of his employees to which they are exposed whilst they are at work.

(b) The risks to the health and safety of persons not in his employment arising out of or in connection with the conduct by him of his undertaking.

 

 

At OHS Ltd we take a practical and holistic approach to Health, Safety and Environmental Risk Management by tailoring each service to the particular risks of every client. We have a wealth of experience in multi sectors and multi risk categories which allows us to keep it simple yet affective whilst maintaining legal compliance. At OHS we look to the bigger picture providing1,  3 and 5 year action plans in order to have a long term positive influence on a company’s Health and Safety culture.
