The importance of Health & Safety
Keeping your workplace safe
According to ROSPA (Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents) there were over 36 million working days lost due to ill health and work-related accidents in 2009, but ensuring that your business doesn't become another statistic is actually easier than you think. By taking some proactive, yet simple steps to train your staff, you can easily improve the Health and Safety culture in your business and protect yourself from personal injury claims and even criminal prosecutions.
With a proactive stance to Health and Safety Training you will be able to comply with your statutory obligations under the various Health and Safety Acts and you can begin to reap the benefits of operating more safely. Effective Health and Safety training will assist the smooth running of your organisation and help you to avoid the financial repercussions associated with accidents and occupational ill health.
There are also other commercial advantages to introducing a programme of Health and Safety Training into your workplace. If you’re able to demonstrate that your staff receive regular updates, not only will your insurance broker be in a better position to secure savings against your premiums, you’re also much more likely to win new customers when tendering for contracts.
