Making sure that your business or organisation in Bythorn has all the appropriate health and safety procedures in place can be challenging. Any employer, whether it’s in manufacturing, hospitality, retail or an office environment has a duty of care not only to their employees but visitors and customers as well.
But how do you stay on top of health and safety in the workplace if you are a small or medium-size company and budgets are tight? That’s where our competent person services make such a difference.
Benefits of Third-Party Health and Safety Support
Employing someone full-time, in-house to deliver health and safety services can be expensive. Another option is to add to the duties of an existing employee to try and cover all the bases. This, however, can mean you lack the real expertise your business you need.
Outsourcing to a third party is the other option and has several advantages:
- You can budget more effectively for your business and still maintain high levels of health and safety.
- You get access to the appropriate level of expertise and keep up with changing legislation.
- You can easily demonstrate that you are meeting your health and safety obligations with your industry.
The added advantage is that you get complete peace of mind and can get on with managing and growing our business rather than worrying about health and safety.

- You can include Soteria as your competent person for any corporate literature or your website.
- The competent person assigned to your business will be able to audit and give an overview of your current health and safety provision and review your policy.
- They can also help you put in place new health and safety policies.
- If there are legal updates that apply to your industry, your competent person will be able to advise you accordingly and help put in the appropriate changes to your operation.
- All this can be monitored over time with quarterly reports created that show what you are getting for your investment.
