Construction work safety is managed under CDM (construction design and management regulations) regulations. This places duties of care on the various parties involved in the construction process to ensure that every project runs safely.
Corporate Manslaughter
Because previous legislation surrounding Corporate Manslaughter was too difficult to enforce, on the 6 April 2008, the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 (CMA) came into force throughout the UK.
Fire Risk Assessments
The Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order (2005) now requires you to manage the risk of fire in your organisation, but do you really know what is expected of you?
Health and Safety
The ramifications of non-compliance in your workplace can be significant, limiting business operations and having significant bottom line impact - not to mention the worse case scenario incumbent in the new Corporate Manslaughter and Homicide Act.
Manual Handling
In 2008 over a third of all reportable injuries to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) were because of manual handling related problems; but providing the appropriate level of training in house is difficult unless you have your own Health and Safety department.
riddor
The RIDDOR (Reportable Injuries Diseases and Dangerous Occurrence Regulations ) regulations place responsibilities on employers to report certain matters to the Health and Safety Executive. The confusing thing is knowing what to report and in what time-scales.
Risk Assessments
Risk Assessments are an integral part in the process of managing the risks incumbent in any business activity. Unfortunately, often because of a lack of time and resource, risk assessments in most businesses are inadequate.
Workplace Safety
Good management of workplace safety represents not only good business practice, but also it can improve both performance of staff and the business in general.
Writing a Health and Safety Policy
Any organisation with five or more employees is legally required to have a written Health & Safety Policy (Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 section 2(3)). It shouldn't be a complicated document but it does need to be a concise summary, stating how your business manages safety.
