Health & Safety Management Systems

Share |

There are legal, moral and financial reasons why an effective health and safety management system should be adopted by your organisation.

Firstly the employer has a legal duty under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 to provide a safe working environment for employees and others in their control, secondly the employer and employees all have a common law duty of care to each other and it is morally unacceptable to risk the safety and health of others for the sake of profit, finally effective health and safety management will reduce the likelihood of litigation and its associated costs.

Strategic Risk Management are able to work with you to develop an effective and easy to implement health and safety management system for your company. All systems are bespoke and developed in line with the framework guidelines set out in HSG65: Successful Health and Safety Management and BS8800.

Typically this will involve:

Development of statutory policy documentation
Staff organisation – identification of roles and responsibilities and the provision of the training and advisory support required for the development of a positive health and safety culture
Planning and setting health and safety objectives
Hazard identification
Risk assessment
Risk elimination and control (hierarchy of control)
Prioritising health and safety activities and agreeing health and safety targets
Setting measurable performance standards
Putting in place an active monitoring system to measure performance against agreed standard
