Whether you’re looking for a full health and safety audit or a task-specific risk assessment, our experts can take a systematic look at your premises and practices and work with you to ensure safety and compliance.

How we help

Identify issues, maintain high safety standards

Risk assessment comes in many forms. If you’re not confident in your current safety management system, you may need a full intensive health and safety audit to check everything is in place and working the way it should.

Alternatively, you might need a more specific assessment of a particular activity or piece of equipment or just need support keeping your risk assessments up to date.

  • Get an on-site audit of your working environment in the form of a General Risk Assessment
  • Help formulating assessments for specific risk areas such as DSE, manual handling, COSHH and fire safety
  • Build your own assessments and checks, assign responsibilities and monitor actions with our award-winning Health & Safety Software
  • Unlimited advice and guidance from a named Health & Safety specialist to keep you compliant

Meaningful risk assessment tailored to you

With the HSE more rigorously pursuing enforcement action against those found to be in material breach of health and safety law, ensuring risk is appropriately managed is crucial to avoiding significant financial penalties and damage to your reputation.

Rather than relying on generic risk assessment templates, with support from a qualified professional, you can ensure your risk assessments reflect your specific activities, the particular risks present within your workplace and the controls you have in place. That way, you can reduce the risk of injury and ill health, demonstrate compliance and stand up to regulator scrutiny.
