Health and safety help at hand for SMEs
A surge in calls from SMEs requesting advice on health and safety information has led B&ES to create a specialist pack specifically designed for small businesses.
The SME Safety Pack contains advice on setting out and maintaining general and site health and safety responsibilities.
The pack contains over 70 industry related risk assessments, accident reporting, accident investigation, and many more assessment and checklist templates in open Word and PDF formats. The pack also contains 5 Safety Facts booklets and the new Toolbox Talks, which delivers 45 key topic titles in a site-friendly A5 laminated card system. The booklets are ideal to engage new employee induction training, with the Toolbox Talks establishing further site specific training. Both act as an ideal process for setting out and demonstrating good practice and Health & Safety compliance.
Russell Mott, B&ES Technical and Safety Officer said: “We noticed there was an increasing demand from small companies for information about basic health and safety. We have put together relevant B&ES Publications documents in one handy pack to help small businesses fulfil their legal obligations towards health and safety. The pack will also help B&ES members to satisfy their inspection and assessment
requirements.”
