What is a Retained Health & Safety Service?
A retained health and safety adviser is a person or company that provides ongoing health and safety support to your business over a period of time.
The support could simply be health and safety advice over the phone, by email or in person but may also include other services including risk assessments, annual review of health and safety policies and procedures, training, and safety inspections.
Our packages are developed to meet the individual needs of your business following a consultation with one of our experienced Health & Safety Consultants.
