Health & Safety

Society today is knowledgeable and demanding. People expect more comfort for less effort. They also expect to live and work more safely, and this expectation is supported by a raft of British and European legislation.

Non-compliance can leave companies and their management vulnerable to prosecution. In the case of injuries sustained by employees, such events can often be followed by claims of negligence and subsequent compensation.

There is, today, too much legislation in place for the average company director or responsible person to remain fully aware of his / her legal duties. Specialist advisors are needed by all organisations to assist them in maintaining compliance with health and safety law. The employment of such competent advisors is itself, a legal requirement for all companies employing five or more persons.

From policies, risk assessments, audits, inspections and training provision to employee consultation, dealings with statutory authorities and expert witness, Fox~Robinson have qualified advisors in the field able and willing to assist you.
