JAW Business Solutions are health & safety consultants, operating predominantly in Birmingham, West Midlands, East Midlands, Staffordshire, Worcestershire & Wales. We are preferred suppliers listed in the Business Link Select Supplier Register, and have over 21 years experience in training, and hold Technician status with the Institute for Occupational Safety & Health, (IOSH). The Corporate Manslaughter Act came into effect in April 2008. Company Directors now face unlimited fines, along with imprisonment if found guilty in court of ‘gross failure’ of their management of health and safety procedures, which results in a death. Further changes to the law in January 2009 increased substantially the level of fines. In the event of a company having to attend court on health and safety breaches, the ‘reverse burden of proof’ applies. Quite simply, the company has to prove (with the correct documentation) that it followed the raft of health and safety legislation in force. Full Stop! Everyone is facing tough times in business, but it is simply false economy to be just considering what health and safety will cost you, and ignoring the consequences of what it may ultimately save you.

Fortunately, the law recognises that employers can either be good at running a company or having a go at becoming a health & safety expert! This is why the law allows for an employer to appoint a ?competent person? to assist them to meet their legal obligations. Here at JAW Business Solutions, we can tailor make a package for you that will ensure you become compliant with current health and safety laws. Quite alarmingly there are many companies simply not complying with their legal obligations, and this could well be a very costly business decision because the Health & Safety Executive tend to ensure the cases they pursue conclude with substantial fines in court. If you would like a site visit to assess the needs of your company, give us a call and let us guide you through the minefield of becoming legally compliant.
