Aon Advisory Risk Management offers comprehensive professional health and safety services, with risk managers who bring a wealth of experience from various industry sectors.
Know Your Health and Safety Commitments
Very few small to medium-sized employers have the time, knowledge or human resources to address the demands of health and safety legislation. Yet, the
consequences of failure can be severe, both in human
and legal terms. For these businesses, individual directors are held responsible. Penalties can include fines and, for more serious offences, imprisonment.
The introduction of the Health and Safety Offences Act 2008 makes that outcome more likely, with fines increasing significantly. It is therefore crucial that employers properly attend to this aspect of their business. Aon clients have found our tailored approach with dedicated risk consultants to be an efficient and cost-effective means of meeting their obligations under law.
Company Health Check
Workplace health and safety will continue to have a high profile as new legislation is passed that increases employers’ legal duties.
Aon provides a basic health check that gives companies an independent evaluation of their health and safety procedures.
The health check uncovers ways you can increase your compliance with regulatory and legislative guidelines. In our health check, we will assess your:
Health and safety policies
Health and safety arrangements
Health and safety record keeping
Ability to respond to a health and safety emergency
Compliance with legislation
Ability to defend liability claims
Frequency of hazard-spotting workplace exercises
We will provide a full written report upon completion of our health check assessment.
The health check highlights deficiencies in legislation compliance, so you'll be better prepared for legal action in the event of a liability claim.
The benefits of using a third party for workplace audit or inspection cannot be overstated. Aon Advisory Risk Management offers comprehensive professional health and safety services, with risk managers who bring a wealth of experience from various industry sectors.
We ensure your business complies with UK health and safety regulations and has effective systems in place to minimise day-to-day risks. We provide inspections, audits and assistance with the production and maintenance of a health and safety policy and workplace risk assessments.
