Policies / Procedures
Every company over 5 employees is required by law to have a documented health & safety policy and risk assessments. When it comes to health and safety policies and procedures, we specialise in simplicity. Why overcomplicate something when it can be straightforward, clear and concise?If you need a full Health, Safety and Environmental systems review, or if you simply want to set up or update your HSE documentation call SHAPE.
Assessments
Risk assessments are the key to identifying the hazards arising from your business activities. By looking at who is affected and what control measures you already have in place, we can help you see what else needs to be done to reduce the risks.
SHAPE can help with the following assessments:
Accident / Incident Investigation
Following an accident, incident or dangerous occurrence it is critical that all information is captured so that your business can learn the lessons and stop it happening again.Under the Reporting of injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations (RIDDOR) you have a legal requirement to report certain accidents or ill health at work. You may also need to provide detailed information to your insurer to defend a potential claim.
For an independent accident investigation or review, or for straightforward advice following an incident, call SHAPE.
Claims Reviews
If you are failing to manage health, safety, fire and environmental risks and your premises are not fully protected, you may be facing the possibility of future claims.
If you are effectively managing your business risks, you may be missing an opportunity to negotiate lower premiums with your insurer or broker.
For an independent review of your accidents, incidents and claims history and to see what more can be done to reduce the frequency or mitigate the size of future claims, call SHAPE.
Audits
You may already have robust systems and comprehensive procedures in place, but how can you make sure that what you have done is suitable and sufficient?An independent audit by one of our consultants can allow you to check your compliance and identify if there are any gaps or ways you need to improve.
Most audits fall into one of the following categories:
