If you’re a business or organisation located in or near Manchester, we can provide you with quality health, safety, and environmental management services.
We can provide competent personal services in Manchester and the surrounding areas.
If you own a business or organisation, it is a legal requirement that you have access to at least one competent person, regardless of how big or small your business is.
A competent person is somebody within your organisation who has received all of the relevant health and safety training.
IOSH (Institution of Occupational Safety and Health) training and knows exactly what to do in the event of a health or safety issue.
If you’re a new business, it’s important that you appoint a competent person as soon as possible. The Management of Health and Safety Regulation Act of 1999 says that:
“Every employer shall appoint one or more competent persons to assist them in understanding the measures they need to take to comply with the requirements and prohibitions imposed upon them by or under the relevant statutory provisions”.
Failing to do so can be detrimental to you and your business; it can lead to prosecution, fines and in the worst case, your reputation as a business will be damaged.
With any business, your reputation is everything, and having a bad reputation due to not caring about health and safety can discourage clients and staff from working with your business.
Understanding and adhering to the ever-changing health and safety rules and requirements can be difficult and tiring. It can involve plenty of paperwork, as well as organising policies and creating risk assessments.
Running a business can be hard work, and our dedicated team of consultants at Beaconrisk can reduce the bureaucracy involved with health and safety management, giving you time to complete other tasks required for your business.
