Whatever sort of business you are, the underlying aim of good health and safety management is to make sure that people's safety is not put at risk and that their health is not damaged.
Remember, attention to health and safety is not just about obeying the law and being socially responsible. This is a big point for me - it's about treating people fairly - as you would want to be treated! It also makes good business sense.
Action on health and safety can:
- reduce your accident losses;
- cut absenteeism;
- improve your profit and loss statement;
- help you become more efficient; and
- improve your business profile with customers, clients, insurers, enforcers etc.
The key to ensuring the safety and health in the workplace is having a good health and safety management system which protects everyone. I guess that is where PES comes in - taking the stress out the situation -as it were. So, if you are an SME in South West Wales - then give me a call....or an email - or look me up on Twitter (NeilMaidman) or have a look on Facebook for PES South West Wales....join the fanpage!
Stay safe until next time.
Neil
