FAQs
Q. QuestionWhat are the legal consequences of not following health & safety at work?
Health & safety law states you must assess risks, plan, and organise preventive measures, have a written health and safety policy for organisations with five or more employees, provide access to competent health and safety advice, and consult employees.
Failure to comply may result in serious consequences, such as fines, imprisonment, and disqualification.
BrightSafe software and support services help you stay on top of health & safety laws with a 24/7 phoneline to qualified health & safety experts. All BrightHR users also get exclusive access to a library of expertly written HR and health & safety document templates to support your compliance.
Yes, The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 mandates employers with five or more employees to have a written health & safety policy.
If you are uncertain about creating your policy, BrightHR's library of current policies can assist you. Plus, with a direct line to a qualified health & safety advisor, you can get immediate answers to all your questions and create a policy that complies with legal requirements.
Enforcing health and safety laws is shared between local authorities, the Fire & Rescue Service, and the Health & Safety Executive (HSE). Each has its own set of powers to enter your premises, examine and investigate, review, and seize documentation, halt works, and prosecute employers for breaches of the law.
With BrightSafe Advice you can make sure that you are always in line with the law and access last-minute advice to help you pass upcoming HSE inspections.
