Under the Health & Safety At Work Act 1994 it requires all companies who employ 5+ employees to have a written Health and Safety Policy which is reviewed on a regular basis. The Policy consists of three key areas:
- Your company statement; your business values and commitment to H&S
- Your organisation; detailing key individuals responsibilities for H&S
- Your arrangements; systems and procedures to deliver H&S standards on an operational basis.
This Policy provides a framework for all other aspects of H&S.
This Policy must be signed and dated by the most Senior Person in the Organisation and made available to all employees.
This Policy must be reviewed on a regular basis. Reason to review:
Annual Review, where the most Senior Person ensures it is current and relevant. It is then signed and dated.
Changes to the company including; change of premises, change of ownership, change of working practices, change in Legislation.
