Health & Safety Management 
Your employees' safety at work is totally your responsibility
By law, all organisations with five or more employees are required to have a written health and safety policy that must be brought to the attention of their employees.
As an employer you also have a duty to comply with all current health and safety regulations – no matter how complex they may appear – and also to comply with each and every piece of new regulation as it is introduced.
We'll give you all the help and support you need
AXA ICAS Occupational Health Services can apply all the experience and expertise you need to help you manage health and safety positively and effectively.
What Health and Safety Management can do for you
Our Health and Safety Management programme is made up of two key elements: Health and Safety Support and Health Surveillance. This combination enables us to provide your organisation with comprehensive, end-to-end, health and safety support.
And we do more than just relieve you of the pressure of implementing and managing your major health and safety procedures.
We'll provide your organisation with expert, practical advice on ways of avoiding unnecessary cost and interruption to your business. And we'll also demonstrate how you can save money by introducing a variety of health and safety controls.
This includes a full audit of your workplace to identify any health and safety issues and establish potential risk areas that should be addressed.
This not only pinpoints problems with your premises but also provides a full management report that identifies training needs and presents an action plan for improvement.
Advice can also be given on a wide range of related subjects such as occupational hygiene and manual handling techniques. We will help you ensure that your company is able to comply with all current health and safety regulations and any new legislation.
Services that make up our Health and Safety Support include:
Health and safety base line audit
We'll carry out an in-depth study of your current health and safety practices and documentation. We then use these findings to prepare a timed and budgeted action plan to help you address your health and safety procedures systematically and cost effectively.
Our audit incorporates:
• inspection of your premises and review of current health and safety policy and procedures
• assessment of compliance with health and safety regulations
• identification of training needs
• full management report including action plan for improvement.
We can provide practical advice and assistance on the design and implementation of special control systems to help ensure that your organisation continues to meet latest health and safety regulations.
This service brings immediate, expert investigation of any accidents that may occur – enabling you to obtain all the facts without delay.
Our on-site accident investigation service also provides monthly management reports outlining trends, costs and recommendations to help you limit the number of accidents in your workplace.
It is a requirement of current Health and Safety legislation that all significant risks in the workplace are assessed and recorded. We'll help you comply with this by providing expert risk assessments including:
• manual handling
• fire
• personal protective equipment
• Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH)
• display screen equipment and ergonomic issues
• job safety analysis.
We can also help you ensure that your premises are a safe environment in which to work by providing a range of specialist surveys. These include:
• noise testing
• water testing
• air monitoring
• COSHH advisory services.
It's important to ensure that all your health and safety procedures are kept fully up to date. We provide an upgrade service – tailored to your organisation to ensure you are mindful of and comply with the latest requirements.
If you have an urgent query or need expert answers to help solve a health and safety issue, we can provide immediate help by telephone. This service is available during normal office hours.
We offer management training in all areas of health and safety – including first-aid and manual handling.
