Health and Safety Policy - preparation and implementation support

The General Statement: This is the declaration of the employer's intent to provide and maintain, so far as is reasonably practicable, a safe and healthy working environment and to enlist the support of employees towards achieving these ends. The statement should be signed by the employer / chief executive, to demonstrate commitment to managing health and safety.

The Organisation: To be fully effective, the policy should detail health and safety responsibilities within the entire organisation. Where appropriate key individuals or their job titles should be named, and responsibilities defined within a job description.

The Arrangements: This part of the policy will need to cover the systems and procedures in place for ensuring employees health and safety in all areas of the organisation. We can arrange for a qualified Safety Manager to visit your premises and draft a Health & Safety policy on your behalf.
