01 — MORE THAN A HELPLINE
A generic policy cannot see the job, the equipment or the shortcuts people actually take.
Good health and safety support starts with how work is really carried out. That means understanding your sites, people, equipment, contractors and current controls—not simply issuing another folder of templates.
Our retained service gives SMEs ongoing access to competent advice, planned workplace support and practical follow-through. You keep operational responsibility; we help you understand the priorities, build suitable evidence and get the actions completed.
02 — WHAT YOU GET
A clear programme from baseline to better control.
The exact mix is agreed around your risks, sites and existing capability.
Compliance baseline
A focused review of current arrangements, documents, training, open actions and higher-priority gaps so effort goes where it matters first.
Risk documents
Policies, risk assessments, RAMS and safe systems of work shaped around the real task and written so supervisors can apply them.
Workplace visits
An agreed bank or programme of inspections, reviews and site support with clear findings, owners, priorities and follow-up.
Incident support
Help after accidents and near misses to protect people, preserve evidence, establish root causes and reduce the chance of recurrence.
Wider coordination
Planning around fire, training, contractors, occupational health, insurers, clients and regulator requests, with specialist work scoped separately where needed.
03 — WHEN TO CALL
Use retained support before risk becomes disruption.
- You do not have sufficient internal health and safety competence or capacity.
- Risk assessments and safe systems no longer match the work being done.
- New equipment, premises, contractors or work activities are being introduced.
- Inspections repeatedly identify the same incomplete actions.
- An accident, near miss, client concern or regulator request needs a controlled response.
- Several sites need one consistent standard with sensible local ownership.
A sensible starting point
First understand what exists. Then fix the risks that matter most.
We agree the sites and people covered, review the live risks and current arrangements, then set a practical improvement rhythm. Your proposal makes clear what is included, how workplace visits will be used and which specialist surveys or major incident work would be separately agreed.
