Practical Help For People Responsible For Safety
Health and Safety Consultants Manchester is a specialist service brand for commercial health and safety enquiries. We focus on the decisions employers and managers need to make about their people, workplaces and operations.
The service covers risk assessments, safety audits, CDM advice, COSHH assessments, policy writing, competent person support and construction safety. You can ask about a specific requirement or describe a problem that needs investigation.
We believe the useful test of advice is whether it helps someone understand a risk and take action. The scope should reflect the work, the evidence should support the findings and the recommendations should be understandable to the people expected to apply them.
An Honest Scope From The Start
Your enquiry should lead to a discussion about the activities involved and the expertise required. Before commissioning work, ask for the proposed deliverables, any exclusions and the arrangements for follow-up.
We do not present an assessment or audit as a guarantee of compliance. Managers still need to implement precautions and check that they remain effective. Technical examinations, monitoring or specialist investigations may need separate input.
The Framework Behind The Advice
Work is scoped with reference to the relevant UK legal duties and HSE guidance. The Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 provide the general starting point for commercial workplaces in Manchester.
Construction activity may require attention to the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015. Hazardous substance work may fall within the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002, as amended. The duties that matter depend on the operation, rather than a standard list copied into every report.
Start With Your Workplace
Tell us what your organisation does, the site location and the issue prompting the enquiry. You do not need to send confidential employee information or a full document archive at this stage.
Your permission is requested before your details are passed to a suitable local firm. Read the privacy notice and use the enquiry form when you are ready to explain the work.
