Frequently Asked 
Questions 

Q - Do you work outside of Yorkshire?

Yes, definitely, we just add travel costs into the quote where needed. 

​

Q - Do you only work with Education, Theatre and Events?

No, we work with all kinds of businesses - Helping SME's is part of our passion. 

​

Q - Do I need Health and Safety for my business? It's only office work. 

Yes, every business, regardless of size or function, has to ensure the safety of its own people and customers. If you have 5 or more employees, you do have to have written evidence of your Health and Safety management. 

​

Q - What is the difference between an audit and an inspection?

Audits - these are a check on how health and safety works, less focused on compliance and more on function. This is a proactive way to get health and safety running properly so compliance becomes part of everyday. These usually take 3-4 days or at least 2 days per site if you have a multi-site operation, for example, Academy Trusts with a number of schools. A full report will document your health and safety management check-up and what improvements can be made. 

​

Inspections - these are compliance check-ups and can be done in 1-2 days. They usually start by having you provide all the compliance information you have, then a site visit to check on how this flows.​
