or approach that is relevant to the individual business concerned.

help you to identify all the potential hazards, offering advice on
how best to look after your employees and how to manage Health and
Safety in your business. It has been produced as a direct result of
recent research, based on discussions with Health and Safety
Inspectors, the Fire Authorities, Insurance representatives, Health
and Safety professionals, and of course, Small Businesses
themselves. Taking into account the practical issues faced in small
business units, this guide takes you through all the main aspects

help you establish a system that you can maintain, add-to and keep
up-to-date as official regulations and your needs change. It is NOT
a legal textbook, but IS a practical guide on how to establish an
approach to organising and managing these issues. While following
this guide cannot guarantee that your business now fully complies
with all the relevant legislation that applies to it, it does
enable you to demonstrate to others that you have made a reasonable
attempt at bringing all these different elements together in a
structured, holistic way.
Full of practical advice sample Site Plans and Checklists,
photographs and industry-specific sections, Practical Health and
Safety Management for Small Businesses will prove an invaluable
