Health and Safety
Health and safety at work aims to protect people while they are working. It also helps keep others safe who may be affected by work activities. The Council helps businesses meet their health and safety duties by giving advice, training, and carrying out inspections.
We offer support in several ways:
- Visiting businesses to talk about health and safety and raise awareness
- Giving information and guidance packs to help you follow the law
- Running workshops to give clear advice and training
- Investigating complaints or accidents to make sure safety standards are met
Our Environmental Health Officers visit workplaces to check that the law is being followed. They can give advice on how to improve safety. If a business is putting people at risk, Officers can take action to make sure things are put right. The level of action depends on how serious the risk is.
