The Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 requires all businesses employing five or more persons to have a Health and Safety Policy.

A Health & Safety Policy is a business plan for safety and is your statement of the importance you place upon health and safety, your aims as regards safety performance and how you intend to achieve those aims.

The policy must contain a Statement of Intent which clearly demonstrates your commitment, an Organisational Section, setting out who is responsible for what and an Arrangements Section that sets out how the policy is to be implemented. 

JMS Risk Solutions Ltd will undertake a review to determine whether your existing Health and Safety Policy complies with the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and also meets the current profile of the business.

The organisational section will be reviewed in line with current guidance on directing safely - INDG417 HSE/IoD Guidance - Leading Health & Safety at Work.

Where appropriate a new policy incorporating your organisation for health and safety and also detailing the implementation arrangements will be written and provided.
