Health & Safety for the Retail Industry

Every retail business, from small shops to large stores, has a duty of care under the Health & Safety at Work Act. Our customised assessments ensure risks are controlled and compliance is met.

Not only do you need to consider your employees, but those that enter your premises.  You have a duty under the Health and Safety etc at Work Act (HSWA) 1974 

This Act places a legal duty on employers to ensure, so far as reasonably practicable, the health, safety, and welfare of employees, and to ensure that employees and others are kept safe.

  • Slips and trips
  • Manual handling
  • Workplace transport
  • Violence
