Health & Safety Assessment in Oxford

Health and Safety Assessments for Oxford Businesses

We provide health and safety assessments for businesses in Oxford, helping you meet your legal duties under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974. Employers must provide a safe and healthy environment for employees, contractors and visitors, and many find the process overwhelming. We make it straightforward, practical and free from unnecessary jargon.

As an independent safety consultancy, we give you professional health and safety consultancy support without the cost of an in-house specialist. We have over 20 years of experience across a wide range of industries, and we take the time to understand your business before we offer honest, tailored advice.

Health and Safety Support for Different Industries

Every workplace has its own risks, so we shape our support around the way you work. For construction companies, we provide site audits and hands-on training. We also create tailored solutions for warehouses, including large distribution centres and smaller sites, so they stay safe, compliant and efficient. We help offices meet their obligations while protecting their people and premises, and we support care homes with risk evaluations of their sites and safety training. Leisure centres and gyms also get our help in meeting legal requirements while creating a safe and welcoming environment for customers.

Competent Person Health and Safety Support in Oxford

The law requires every employer to appoint one or more competent persons to help manage health and safety. Without this support, businesses can face enforcement action, fines and even prosecution. Not every business can employ a full-time adviser, which is where our competent person health and safety service comes in. It works as outsourced health and safety support, with fixed monthly fees that make budgeting simple and access to professional advice whenever you need it.

Three Levels of Support

You can start small and upgrade as your business grows. Our three levels are:

• Bronze: the right to name us as your competent person, telephone and email support with a 24 hour response, legislative updates, monthly newsletters, reduced visit fees and discounted training
• Silver: everything in Bronze, plus two half day site visits a year by a qualified consultant and one half day training course for up to 12 people
• Gold: everything in Bronze, plus monthly visits by a qualified consultant, an annual health and safety management review, two half day training courses for up to 12 people and free templates

If your business has unique risks or industry requirements, we can create a custom package to match.

SafeContractor Accreditation Help in Oxford

Working towards SafeContractor accreditation can feel complicated, especially if you have never done it before. Our accreditation help service guides you through every step, and we also support CHAS, Constructionline and other certifications.

Why Accreditation Matters

A recognised accreditation does more than prove compliance. It strengthens your professional reputation, helps you win more contracts and tenders, and shows clients and partners that you operate safely and responsibly.

How We Support You

We start by defining the exact requirements of your chosen accreditation. Our consultants then review your policies, procedures and management systems, and help you gather supporting documents such as risk assessments, training records and method statements. If anything is missing or out of date, we work with you to put it right. We then guide you through submitting your evidence and keep supporting you until your certification is approved.

Risk Assessments and Method Statements for Oxford Businesses

Every business has a legal responsibility to carry out suitable and sufficient risk assessments and method statements. A risk assessment identifies the hazards in your workplace and evaluates the risk, while a method statement sets out step-by-step instructions for carrying out a task safely. Our team writes both in plain, practical language that reflects your business activities, sites and people. We do not rely on generic templates, and we can also help you create or improve your health and safety policy.

A Second Opinion Through a Safety Audit

If you already have a safety management system but have a nagging doubt that something has been missed, a safety audit gives you a second opinion from a health and safety professional. It can uncover hidden risks, highlight areas where you can save money and confirm that your practices meet current legal standards.

Why Choose Us as Your Health and Safety Consultant in Oxford?

Every assessment we carry out reflects your specific business, sites and people. We explain what is required and give you clear guidance without confusing jargon, so you can take all reasonable steps to manage the risks involved.
