Health and Safety Standard
BS OHSAS 18001 2007
Every business has legal responsibilities to ensure the health and safety of employees and other people and to protect the environment. But the right approach isn't about doing the minimum required to comply with the rules. It's also a matter of seeing what's in it for you.
Poor health and safety leads to illness and accidents - and significant costs for your business. Excessive energy consumption doesn't just harm the environment - it hurts your profits, too.
Good health, safety and environmental practices pay for themselves. They also improve your reputation with customers, the local community and your own employees.
Harry Staniforth Associates Ltd will support you as a client on a continuing basis. The following gives some idea of the areas that you as a Company may need to address and the areas in which we can provide expert support.
- Compliance with health, safety and environmental rules
- Avoid the costs of illness, accidents and incidents at work
- Improve your reputation through health, safety and environmental practices
- Introduce environmental cost-reductions
- Health, safety and environmental practices help with your insurance costs
- Plan ahead to get health, safety and the environment right
Compliance with health, safety and environmental rules
You have a legal responsibility for the health and safety of everyone affected by your business. Failing to follow the rules can have severe consequences. You can be fined or even face a prison sentence. In some circumstances, your business could be closed down to stop you acting illegally.
