Overview
My belief is that by following simple to understand and implement safety advice ensures a safe workplace, a sustainable business and improved reputation for both you and your business. I have been working in health and safety arena since 1998 where process improvement and financial considerations were matched with health and safety considerations and compliance. This pragmtaic and commerically aware approach has been invested within my consultancy. I set up Sphere Risk Health and Safety Management Limited in 2005, as a customer focused Health Safety Consultancy that has been steadily growing since that date. The Company has experience in working with many business sectors and prides itself on offering excellent service with practical, pragmatic, workable solutions to ensure that clients meet their legislative, moral and ethical obligations, reducing their regulatory & reputational risk. Sphere has an excellent reputation of providing a quality health and safety service to companies that ensures a long lasting business benefit. We build H&S into your companys culture utilizing educational learning, behavioural safety and positive re-enforcement procedures and techniques. A range of personal mentoring and support programmes have proven very successful in dealing with individual safety perception and performance. A telephone helpline is operated to provide immediate backup and advice. Sphere also has nationally accredited licenses to deliver IOSH Managing & IOSH Working Safely, IOSH SHE for Construction Workers and Managers along with Leading Safely. (Tel: 01733 286070.
