Site Inspections

So you have your policy and your audit is completed so you know where the gaps are. How do you know if your system is working in practice?

​

That's where site inspections come in and they are essential to ensuring your systems are effective and that you are legally compliant.

 

Often clients do their own site inspections, sometimes at every level of their personnel structure and this is to be encouraged. People will have different perspectives and the more the better.

 

However, at reasonable intervals it is prudent to get the experts in just for that extra peace of mind.

Fire Risk Assessments

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 or Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 employers must ensure that a competent person:

​

• Identifies the fire hazards.

• Identifies people at risk.

• Evaluates, removes or reduces the risks.

• Records the findings, prepares an emergency plan and provides training.

• Reviews and updates the fire risk assessment regularly.

​

As you will appreciate, the consequences of getting this wrong could be catastrophic.

Training Needs Analysis

Under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 all employers must ensure that employees receive adequate health and safety training.

​

Apart from the legal duty, there are many benefits to having an adequately trained workforce.

​

Better quality of work

Help businesses adapt for growth

Reduce errors

Increased staff morale

Recruit and attract the best candidates

Increase in productivity

Fewer client / customer complaints

More fluid role out of new systems & procedures

For basic training needs analysis, often a simple task survey combined with roles / responsibilities analysis can provide the information needed to populate a training matrix. It is then just a matter of ensuring training is planned, managed and coordinated effectively.

​

For some businesses and organisations there are more complex training needs with multiple sites, many personnel, high risk activities, specialised training or other factors.

​

Simplex can assist with any or all stages of your training needs analysis. For those looking for best practice, we can look at the wider sphere of competence and conduct a 'Learning Needs Analysis'

 

Training needs analysis - comprehensive report and recommendations. Assistance with sourcing provision.

Learning Needs Analysis

The learning needs analysis would recognise that competencies may also come from sources other than training, for example:

​

​

• What do employees need to be able to know or do

• Capability, knowledge, skill, competency

• What are the expectations of their Role
  Task analysis / roles and responsibilities / Activities not written or formally captured

• Gap analysis
  Identified shortcomings

• Closing the Gap
  Learning or training methods required

• Evaluating the Learning
  Success monitoring and assessment process

• Responsibility
  Who steers this learning

Loss Event Services - Crisis Planning

Even with robust systems in place sometimes things go wrong.

​

We can help with crisis planning to try and ensure that when they do, companies are prepared and know what to do and when to do it.

​

Loss events can happen at any time and in some cases are catastrophic. An event may be the loss of plant, a building, injury or fatality (s) or loss of business / clients due to lack of planning.

​

Simplex can provide a strategic overview of likely /possible loss events using a modified management oversight risk tree analysis 

Mod-Mort analysis report with recommendations. 

Loss Event Services - Incident Investigation

When loss event incidents occur, it is important to conduct investigations at the appropriate depth and level to try and prevent a recurrence

​

For some situations this will simply mean a senior member of staff filling in an incident report and emailing stakeholders to raise awareness about the key findings.

​

In other cases, a formal incident investigation carried out by an objective 3rd party is needed. That's where Simplex can ensure that a thorough investigation is carried out by a suitablyqualified person.

Comprehensive incident investiigation report & recommendations. Detailed cause analysis summary included.

Loss Event Services - Lessons Learned

A key part to loss event management is to ensure that the same mistakes that lead to the incident don't happen again.

​

We can help you implement near-miss reporting mechanisms that actually work, appropriate awareness campaigns, preparing reports and close-out strategies.

​

We can also liaise with enforcing authorities, the police, barristers and insurers on your behalf.
