HEALTH & SAFETY COMPLIANCE


Issue

Customers are demanding more for less in this economic climate, they expect:

  • “It has been estimated that up to a third of all road traffic accidents involve somebody who is at work at the time. This may account for 20 fatalities and 250 serious injuries every week”. (Health and Safety Executive publication “Driving At Work” INDG382)
  • According to the Department Of Transport in the UK, 3% of car drivers and 5% of van and lorry drivers use their mobile phones (either hands free or not) at any given time during the day on week days. With lower percentages in the evenings and at weekends, this is clearly business use
  • The Corporate Manslaughter Act means employers can be prosecuted if there is a death of an employee which could have been prevented by proper and sensible procedures
  • There are between 3-3.5 million Lone workers in the UK
  • A Lone Worker is defined as a person working on their own without close or direct supervision
  • The Corporate Manslaughter Act makes it easier to prosecute employers if there is a death of an employee which could have been prevented by proper and sensible procedures
  • Research shows that over 150 Lone Workers are attacked every working day
