Mr Gary Latimer

CMIOSH

Overview

We provide practical advice, guidance and support as our main service provision in the form of a Health and Safety Contract Service which is designed for companies dedicated to promoting and managing a strong Health and Safety presence in their workplace.  Many businesses may have difficulty in meeting their aims and objectives as they may not have a suitably qualified member of staff or the financial resources to support a full-time position.  Our Contract Service therefore offers a suitable alternative.

The 12 month service is shaped to the individual needs of the company and gives you on-site access to a qualified and experienced H&S professional for as little or as much time required each month.  This can be in the form of regular site visits or through a remote service whereby advice is available when needed via telephone or email.
