Risk Assessments

  • The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 – Regulation 3, stipulates that:- every employer is required to make a suitable and sufficient assessment of risks to employees and risks to other people who might be affected by the organisation such as visiting contractors and members of the public.
  •  Significant findings from the assessments must be written when there are five or more employees.
  • The assessments need to be reviewed regularly and if necessary, when there have been significant changes, they should be modified.
 
Risk Control Consultancy can:-
