The same is true of the health and safety aspects of a business. Deciding on what matters, using the guidance and expertise available, and doing enough of the right things will enable you to manage business risks and keep your workforce - and your business - safe and healthy. Then some key concepts - leadership and the IoD/HSE guidance; involving the workforce properly in RAs and systems of work; HSE guidance on the internet; how HSE decides who to visit and why and the Ministerial statement which guides us; how we deal with complaints about conditions at companies; how inspectors decide how serious something is and what to do about it; charging.
