Safety Sorted

Description

Safety Sorted: The go-to guide on health and safety for small Irish businesses. NOTE: This book has been written for Irish businesses specifically. You are a small business owner in Ireland and as well as running your business, delivering goods or services and hopefully paying the wages every Friday, you are expected to be fully up to speed with health and safety law. Small companies simply do not have the time, resources, or expertise to plough through all the laws and regulations that apply to them. Even if they did they would not know how or where to start. Large companies employ their own in-house full-time health and safety professionals as safety officers and managers and they are kept busy keeping up with all that they need to comply with. This book aims to educate and support the small business owner. It is a practical, no-nonsense guide and road map through health and safety as it simplifies everything down using “layman’s English”. Furthermore, it is aimed at the small business owner who has had no formal training or expertise so that they can get to grips with health and safety in their business. This invaluable book is the culmination of 30 years of health and safety experience, both as a safety manager in industry and as a consultant working with a range of companies, big and small. It includes real cases that went wrong and a range of checklists to help the small business owner get started. Every small business in Ireland who wants to do the right thing in terms of health and safety needs this book.
