If you think safety is expensive, try an accident!!

 

Every year people are killed or injured at work. Over 40 million working days are lost annually through work-related accidents and illnesses.

​

Recent figures show that an average of 250 employees and self-employed people are killed each year as a result of accidents in the workplace.  A further 150 000 sustain major injuries or injuries that mean they are absent from work for more than three days. Over 2.3 million cases of ill health are caused or made worse by work.

​

Clearly, there are good financial reasons for reducing accidents and ill health. Costings show that for every £1 a business spends on insurance, it can be losing between £8 and £36 in uninsured costs.

​

NH&SH Safety can carry out  effective investigations.  We have a methodical, structured approach to information gathering, collation and analysis from years of experience. The findings of our investigations will form the basis of an action plan to help prevent the accident or incident from happening again and for improving your overall management of risk.

 

Our findings will also point to any areas of your risk assessments that need to be reviewed. This link with risk assessment(s) is a legal duty.
