Health and safety is all about employers no matter how large or small ensuring that their employees do not become ill from work or are harmed by their work.  You must be able to assess the risks posed to your employees at work and then decide how you are going to manage any risks posed. 

“In 2006/07, the number of offences prosecuted by HSE increased to 1141, from 1056 in 2005/06. The average penalty per conviction in 2006/07 was £15,370. If fines in excess of £100,000 are excluded, this gives an average of £8723.” See http://www.hse.gov.uk/statistics/enforce/index.htm.

We offer advice to businesses on how to comply with the Health & Safety Executive and if you have the misfortune of being prosecuted we have the expertise to defend you in these proceedings.  With new corporate manslaughter laws in force you want a quality service and a firm who can assist you not to fall foul of the law. 

We are able to provide a comprehensive service effectively assisting in the management of an incident from its immediate aftermath to investigation by the HSE, police or other agency.  We will advise and assist you at interviews with any of the above mentioned agencies should the need arise.  We are able to prepare cases should the matter proceed to court and to engage specialist Counsel for representation in the Crown Court.  If it is the case that you have to plead guilty then we will negotiate a basis in order to take advantage of a discount in sentence.
