Health & Safety Challenges
You can't be everywhere all of the time. You have to trust your employees to act in accordance with your policies and best practice procedures. However establishing a workplace culture which promotes health and safety is a major challenge for organisations of all sizes.
Reducing accidents and the threat of legal action saves considerable management time and expense. It may also serve to protect corporate reputation. Introducing a policy management system helps ensure health and safety risks are recognised and dealt with sensibly, responsibly and proportionately.
Health & Safety Requirements

Ensuring your organisation meets Health and Safety legislation is critical. All organisations with more than 5 employees are required to have a health and safety policy designed to maintain safe and healthy working environment. The board has both collective and individual responsibility for health and safety. Furthermore directors can be held personally liable for a failure in their duties.
Failure to comply with Health and Safety requirements can result in unlimited fines, imprisonment and disqualification for directors.
