Health & Safety awareness is of critical importance to every workplace for a number of reasons, not least from a regulatory perspective. The Health, Safety and Welfare at Work Act 2005 requires employers to be proactive rather than reactive in managing their safety, health and welfare responsibilities and to deal with them in a systematic way. The penalties for non-compliance are not something to be taken lightly. Our experts will help you create a Safety Statement, create Risk Assessments to professional standards, and show you how to follow and apply the Health & Safety Authority Accident Reporting Rules to any accidents that do occur.

Besides reducing costs, effective Health & Safety Management promotes business efficiency. Thousands of work-related accidents are reported to the Health and Safety Authority each year. Work-related diseases and ill-health result in excess of one million days lost at work in Ireland each year. These accident and ill-health cases are due to failures and deficiencies in the occupational safety and health management in a place of work, and can have a major detrimental effect on the economic stability of the organisation.
