Health and Safety Executive (HSE) Management System should be a straightforward part of managing your business as a whole. It involves practical steps that protect people from harm and at the same time protect the future success of your business. Risk is a part of everyday life, and even quite straightforward businesses can have a range of 'hazards'. You are not expected to eliminate all risks. What you must do is to make sure you know about the main risks that affect you, and what you need to do to manage them responsibly. There are legal health and safety requirements that you have to meet, but accidents also cost money and time - people off work, material costs and damage to buildings, plant or product. These costs are often not covered by insurance. Some of health and safety laws are very specific about what you must do, but some, such as the health and safety at work etc. act 1974 (HSW Act), in general, requires you to do what is 'reasonably practicable' to ensure health and safety. The management of health and safety at work regulations 1999 apply to every workplace and require all risks to be assessed and controlled. This book explains how you can tackle the basics of health and safety and tells you how to identify, assess and control the activities that might cause harm in your business. It looks at your business; in the way the presented suggestions will help you stay safe.
