Health & Safety

Health and Safety law applies to employers, full or part time employees, apprentices, volunteers, seasonal staff and home workers alike. Health and Safety is about preventing people being harmed by work or becoming ill through work. This is so important that the law now states that we must not put ourselves, other workers or the public in danger.

Cost effective health and safety steps can help to benefit your business by helping you to improve business performance and save money. Effective health and safety management clearly helps reduce the unacceptable toll of suffering that accidents and ill health bring.

Controlling danger at work is no different from any other task. By recognising potential problems and deciding what to do and acting on the solutions you will be managing health and safety.

 For companies large or small health and safety doesn't have to be expensive, time consuming or complicated and use of the TeamSpirit health and safety module together with a documented health and safety policy would certainly be a good place to start.
TeamSpirit's Health and Safety module forms part of TeamSpirit HR giving you the ability to quickly record accidents and ill health and analyse the cause and resolution to ensure that similar incidents do not occur in the future.

In addition to recording employee accidents and ill health the system also includes the ability to record non-employee information in the event that a contractor, visitor or apprentice, has an accident or sustains an injury.

TeamSpirit also enables the production of HSE and 2508 reports in accordance with the Health and Safety Act, also accident book entries can be created.
