Workplace Health & Safety Assessments
Creating a safe workplace is fundamental to protecting employees, visitors, and anyone who may be affected by work activities. We work in partnership with organisations to review workplace conditions and identify hazards that could lead to injury, ill health, or damage. Our workplace assessments are carried out in line with UK health and safety legislation and recognised best practice. We assess risks, review existing controls, and recommend proportionate measures to reduce risks to as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP), supporting both legal compliance and a positive safety culture.
Accident & Incident Investigation
Accidents and incidents should be investigated promptly and professionally to understand what happened and prevent a repeat. We support organisations by carrying out structured accident and incident investigations that focus on learning and improvement rather than blame. Our consultants adopt a fair, respectful, and non-confrontational approach, ensuring all relevant factors are considered. Investigations identify immediate and underlying causes and result in clear, practical recommendations aligned with HSE guidance and reporting requirements.
Professional Health & Safety Advice
Access to competent health and safety advice is essential for organisations to meet their legal responsibilities and manage risks effectively. We provide clear, practical advice tailored to the needs of small, medium, and large organisations across a range of sectors. Our consultants offer reliable support to help clients understand their duties, make informed decisions, and maintain safe and compliant workplaces. Advice can be provided on a retained or ad-hoc basis, depending on business needs.
Development of Health & Safety Policies & Guidance
Effective policies are the foundation of a strong health and safety management system. A clear and suitable Health and Safety Policy helps organisations define responsibilities, set standards, and demonstrate commitment to managing health and safety risks. We develop and review health and safety policies and supporting guidance that are tailored to each organisation. All documents are written in clear, straightforward language and aligned with legal requirements and industry best practice, making them practical and easy to implement.
Task & Activity Specific Risk Assessments
Many work activities require specific risk assessments to manage particular hazards effectively. Our dedicated Consultants will conduct task-specific and hazard-specific risk assessments in line with UK legislation and HSE guidance. Our assessments are clear, suitable for site use, and supported by practical control measures and action plans. Areas covered include:
- Noise and vibration
- Manual handling
- Lone working
- Display screen equipment (DSE)
- Work equipment
- Control of substances hazardous to health (COSHH).
Construction Site Inspections
We provide professional construction site inspections to support compliance with the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015. Our consultants have extensive construction experience and understand the realities of site operations at both management and workforce levels. Inspections focus on site conditions, work activities, welfare facilities, and contractor compliance. Following each visit, we provide clear reports highlighting findings and practical recommendations to help improve standards and support effective site management.
CDM Services
Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015 (CDM)
The Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, commonly known as CDM, set out the legal framework for managing health and safety on construction projects in the UK. The regulations apply to all construction work and are designed to ensure that health and safety is considered and managed throughout the lifecycle of a project, from design through to completion and handover.
CDM places specific duties on clients, designers, and contractors to plan, manage, and monitor construction work so that risks are properly controlled. While the regulations are essential for protecting workers and others, they can be complex and require specialist knowledge to apply effectively. Our CDM Advisors support organisations in meeting their duties, helping projects remain compliant while avoiding unnecessary delays, costs, or enforcement action.
Our CDM Services Include
We provide comprehensive CDM support tailored to the needs and size of each project, includes:
- Advising and assisting clients in fulfilling their CDM duties throughout the duration of the project
- Notifying the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) using the F10 notification where projects exceed 30 working days with more than 20 workers on site at any one time, or 500 person-days of construction work
- Ensuring health and safety risks are properly addressed before work starts and effectively managed throughout the construction phase
- Coordinating health and safety aspects of design work and promoting cooperation between all duty holders
- Identifying, collating, and distributing pre-construction information to the appropriate parties in a timely manner
- Supporting clear and effective communication between clients, designers, and contractors
- Liaising with designers and the Principal Contractor on ongoing design and safety matters
- Preparing, reviewing, and updating the Health and Safety File

CHAS Accreditation
What is CHAS?
CHAS (Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme) is a recognised health and safety accreditation widely used within the construction industry. It is often required as part of the tender and pre-qualification process, particularly for public sector projects such as local authorities, schools, and other government-funded works.
CHAS helps buyers (potential client) assess the health and safety competence of contractors (your organisation) in a consistent and efficient way. For contractors, it reduces the need to complete multiple health and safety questionnaires for each tender, saving time and simplifying the bidding process.
Should you become CHAS Accredited?
While CHAS accreditation is not a legal requirement, it demonstrates that your organisation has suitable health and safety arrangements in place and takes the welfare of its workforce seriously. It can also improve your competitiveness when tendering for work. We support organisations through the CHAS accreditation process, from reviewing existing documentation to preparing and submitting applications. This allows you to focus on running your business while we manage the accreditation process on your behalf.
