Employers’ have a legal duty to create a safe and healthy working environment. Action Training’s Health and Safety Audit addresses all relevant aspects of Health and Safety management and workplace risk. The comprehensive report that is produced following the audit provides a road map for full compliance with all relevant legislation.

Action Training recognises the business and workplace benefits of adopting a holistic approach to Health and Safety Management and Business Risk Management. Our policies and procedures are developed with this in mind and to ensure your organisation is fully compliant with all relevant and current legislation.

It is a legal requirement for employers with more than five employees to have a written health and safety policy. This in turn facilitates formal arrangements to effectively manage workplace risks. The Action Training Health and Safety Policy and Procedures Manual is a fundamental and integral part of the Health and Safety management process.

Health and Safety outsourcing is an effective way of improving health and safety management across your organisation. It can reduce costs and work place risk and give organisations time to focus on their core business. Many companies enjoy the benefits of working with their Action Training health and safety consultants in this way.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the Responsible Person (RP) of any non-domestic premises to carry out a fire risk assessment, including measures to reduce or eliminate the risk of fire, and identify persons at risk. Where there are 5 or more employees, a record must be kept of significant findings. Action Training can provide this to assist in your compliance.

As an employer you need to appoint somebody to act as your competent health and safety person. This could be a suitably qualified employee, or you could hire an Action Training health and safety consultant to perform this role. The decision on who to appoint will depend on the specific working environment and the risks involved.

A DSE Assessment evaluates the hazards for employees who regularly use computer equipment, including laptops and mobile devices. Action Training solutions include online or form-based self – assessments, face to face assessments with Action Training or training of your own staff to carry out the assessments.

The investigation of work-related accidents forms an essential part of managing health and safety. Action Training uses a systematic approach to determining why an accident occurred, and the steps needed to prevent recurrence. In the event of a serious incident we can liaise with enforcement authorities and assist with RIDDOR reports.

An annual Health and Safety Annual Report assesses progress against key performance indicators over a 12 months period. The report can be updated quarterly to highlight areas for on-going or immediate improvement. The annual report provides an excellent component of an overall health and safety management system.
