Background: Our client is a family-owned steel fabrication company that has seen significant growth since its inception. Starting with just two employees, the company had expanded to a team of 30 Welders and mechanical engineers.
Challenge: As the company grew, so did the complexity of managing health and safety. Recognising the need for a more structured approach, the Office Manager was enrolled in the IOSH Managing Safely course with She Advises.
Solution: Impressed by the straightforward advice provided during the course, the Office Manager, invited our consultant from She Advises to conduct a comprehensive compliance review of their health and safety practices.
Implementation: Over the next few years, the company, with SHE Advises guidance, completely overhauled their health and safety protocols.
Key initiatives included:
- Developing detailed key activity risk assessments.
- Implementing dynamic risk assessments for on-site activities.
- Establishing a full training program to ensure all employees were well-versed in safety procedures.
Results: The proactive measures taken have significantly improved the safety culture. The company now boasts a robust health and safety framework that not only complies with regulations but also ensures the well-being of all employees.
