"An estimated 2.2 million people, suffered from work related ill-health last year and 31,000 major injury claims within the workplace were reported"

Health and Safety Executive

The duties of the employer under current health and safety law are wide ranging and complex.

Key legal requirements include the assessment of employee health and safety and workplace risks, the planning of preventative measures, the monitoring of health and safety systems and the review of measures implemented.

Health and safety compliance can lead to a more cohesive and efficient workforce. A serious workplace accident can have a devastating impact of workplace morale. For company directors the most serious breach of health and safety legislation can lead to imprisonment.

It is vital that businesses adopt a positive approach to health and safety and risk management.
