Case Study
For a number of years A. H. Allen Ltd has provided a bespoke managed health and safety service for a Small to Medium Enterprise manufacturing food products for supermarkets across the UK.
The size of the business meant it wasn’t cost effective to employ dedicated health and safety personnel so A. H. Allen was contracted to introduce and manage a robust, integrated health and safety system.
This involved assessing the health and safety needs of the business and establishing strict budgetary control before compiling and implementing a documented health and safety system across the company including policy, procedures, risk assessments and accident monitoring.
Employees were inducted into the system through a health and safety training and development programme which included job specific training to ensure they had a complete skill set to ensure they could undertake their role both safely and lawfully. All new employees were put through an extensive health and safety induction with existing employees retrained or provided with additional training whenever necessary.
What started as a general health and safety service now includes fire safety management and asbestos risk management ensuring this client meets all legal working practices in an integrated package that is cost beneficial, legal and safe.
