Health And Safety Solutions
The Law says that any business employing 5 or more people must have in place
a written Health and Safety Policy also Risk Assessments must be carried out
and any significant findings recorded in writing. Failure to do this can result
in serious consequences especially if an accident happens.
It could mean…
Prosecution for failure to provide a safe working environment for your employees
and others with a fine up to £20,000 per count in the Magistrates Court
or if it were transferred to a Higher Court an unlimited fine could be levied
and up to two years imprisonment.
