Services - Risk Assessments
A risk assessment is an important step in protecting your workers and your business, as well as complying with the law. It helps you focus on the risks that really matter in your workplace – the ones with the potential to cause real harm.
In many instances, straightforward measures can readily control risks, for example ensuring spillages are cleaned up promptly so people do not slip, or cupboard drawers are kept closed to ensure people do not trip. For most, that means simple, cheap and effective measures to ensure your most valuable asset, your workforce, is protected.
The law does not expect you to eliminate all risk, but you are required to protect people as far as 'reasonably practicable'.
The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, places a duty on employers to carry out a Risk Assessment to measure the risks to employees.
