Managing Health & Safety Requirements

Health and safety requirements come in many different shapes and sizes. From simple checklists to complicated hazard assessments, keeping employees and visitors safe can be a real challenge depending on your place of work.

Here at Tempus, we take pride in ensuring site-wide health and safety compliance. We understand just how difficult it can be to keep up with regular checks while dealing with a host of other problems that can pop up at short notice.

And with the new legislation introduced since the COVID-19 pandemic, there are now more rules to keep in mind than ever before. With that in mind, we’ve decided to explain the core components of health and safety in the workplace.

Risk assessments

Risk assessments are at the very heart of all effective health and safety policies. While they are a legal requirement, you should always go above and beyond when it comes to your risk assessment. By identifying all hazards correctly you can put effective control measures into place, which means your workplace will be safer as a result. Learn everything there is to know about risk assessments in our full and detailed description.

Workplace safety

Workplace safety is extremely broad, but every bit as important as it sounds. Whether you work in a low or high-risk environment, being aware of hazards and knowing how to avoid them is essential. We provide an in-depth explanation of how all business owners can create a safe working environment for anyone on their premises.

Measuring safety performance

As part of your health and safety plan, you should be measuring the effectiveness of your various policies. This will inform you as to whether you are providing sufficient care for visitors to your site or if you need to improve on certain areas. Knowing how to measure safety performance and also how to make sense of the results can make all the difference when it comes to workplace safety

Workplace emergency procedures

Unfortunately, there is always a chance that things can go wrong. Even when all bases are covered, you can never account for unlikely circumstances that are beyond anyone’s control. Whether it’s due to extreme weather or sheer bad luck, hazards in the workplace can present themselves at any given time. What matters in this instance is knowing how to react in the face of an emergency.
