Health and SafetyHealth and safety in the furniture making and joinery trade has to cover many different aspects from general policies to COSHH and machine safety. It is an area of the law where we have to prove that we have done all that we can to discharge our duty of care. This aspect of health and safety has become a subject of interest within Worth Design and we can offer a wide range of services aimed at small to medium sized woodworking and manufacturing businesses. These include: Health and safety surveys where we look at every aspect of your business from a health and safety standpoint and provide you with a report detailing both good practice and areas that require further development. A review of all your machinery, detailing areas such as braking, guarding, tooling and training. As part of our service we will not only help to identify areas that need attention but, if required, implement the recommendations. We can also undertake or update risk and COSHH assessments and provide the training and safe systems of work to ensure that the control measures identified are implemented and complied with. If you require a formal, written health and safety policy or want to put in place a management system for handling and integrating health and safety into your business, we can help provide you with the tools to achieve that objective. Our view is that there should be a positive health and safety culture within a business, and a formal health and safety management system will promote safe, efficient and cost-effective working practices.
