HEALTH AND SAFETY OUTSOURCING

Why you need the competent Health and Safety advice?

Under Regulation 7 of the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 (MHSAWR), every employer shall appoint one or more competent persons to assist him to comply with the requirements of the Health and Safety law.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) defines a competent person as someone who has sufficient training,  experience,  knowledge and skills and other qualities that allow them to assist you properly. The level of competence required will depend on the complexity of the situation and the particular help you need.

When you should have external Health and Safety consultant?

If there is no competent employee within your organisation or the level of competence is insufficient to assist you in complying with health and safety law, or your whole organisation doesn’t have the appropriate level of competence,  then you should get help from a qualified external consultant to enable you to meet the requirements of health and safety law.
