Health and Safety Audits

What is a Health and Safety Audit?

A Health and Safety Audit is a systematic review of your organisation’s current level of management measured against your existing Health and Safety management system, the Health and Safety at Work Act etc 1974, and the regulations made under this.

Why do I need an audit?

A Health and Safety Audit will give you a clear indication of how the organisation is performing in terms of the management of Health and Safety and legislative compliance. Audits are the final part of the process in Health and Safety management and are an essential tool in establishing where the organisation may be falling short. Our audits can also be used for satisfying insurers, quality assurance, board level reports, accreditations and action planning.

How can RHSS Ltd Help?

Working with RHSS Ltd you can rest assured that the audit we will carry out will identify any improvements that may be necessary in order to prevent workplace accidents, while identifying how to gain compliance with Health and Safety legislation that applies to your business.

Principal Designer

What is a Principal Designer?

The Principal Designer is a Designer engaged in a project who has control over Health and Safety during the preconstruction phase.

When is a Principal Designer required?

For all construction projects (domestic and commercial) where more than one contractor is to be engaged or if it is foreseeable that more than one contractor will be engaged.
When must a Principal Designer be appointed?

A Principal Designer must be appointed ‘as soon as is practicably possible’ at the start of a project and must possess skills,
knowledge, experience and training and, if an organisation, the organisational capability. The Client must make this appointment for all commercial projects. Contractors and Designers may become Principal Designers without an appointment made by the Client on domestic projects.
What we do?

Appoint RHSS Ltd as Principal Designer (a Client appointment) or Principal Designer Advisor (by Designers who are Principal Designers) depending on the size of the project and the design team involved. RHSS will become part of the project team working with all project team members to aid with compliance without over-complicating CDM. RHSS can produce design risk registers and maintain these throughout projects. Our consultants will collect and provide pre-constructrion information including the drafting of the Health and Safety File. Consultants will participate at design meetings to complement projects, not restrict them, and contribute to Health and Safety requirements at design, build and use stages.

Risk Assessments

What is a Risk Assessment?

A risk assessment is not an audit or an inspection, it is a careful examination of what in your work could cause harm to people. You can then weigh up whether you have taken enough precautions or should do more to prevent harm. Your staff and others have a right to be protected from harm caused by a failure to take reasonable control measures. Accidents and ill-health can ruin lives and affect your business too if output is lost, machinery is damaged, insurance costs increase or you have to go to court.
Does my company need Risk Assessments?

Yes, all employers have a legal obligation to protect both their health and safety and that of the worksforce. Regulation 3 of the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 requires, among other things, that all employers assess the risks to the health and safety of their employees whilst they are at work.

How can we assist you?

We can complete risk assessments on your behalf to include general, task specific, process, machinery and one-off situations. Following this, we can produce an action plan that can be gradually worked on by you and your team, leaving you more time to concentrate on the running of your business. We are also able to provide ongoing support and advice on implementing the actions from these assessments.
