● Do you know if you are at risk of being prosecuted for Health and Safety violations?
● How would a fine impact your bottom line (insurance does not cover fines)?
● Would the bad publicity have an adverse effect on your business?
● Do you know the cost of prosecution is far more expensive than prevention?
I often hear:
● “We have never had a problem” / “We have always done it this way”.This means the odds are stacking against you and the likelihood of an accident is increasing.
● "There is little chance of us being inspected".No one goes to work to have an accident so any one of the following could cause an investigation; a workplace accident, HSE spot-check, a disgruntled employee report’s you, Covid 19 inspection.
If you had a visit from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) how confident are you that you comply and would not be prosecuted?
Are you aware that in most cases, if the HSE inspector believes there is a material breach, then you could be charged £166 per hour for their time until the case concludes?
I have seen business owners and heard this statement so many times – “We are fully insured should anything happen".Fact: While insurance may protect most business risks it cannot cover fines. Some policies may cover associated costs – check with your broker or insurer.
Even if you have your own H&S employee in your organisation, it is prudent to have an independent external site inspection.
Remember it is YOU who could be prosecuted.
