The law says every company must have a health and safety policy, but do you know why it is so important? Do you know what this policy should contain? Do you know who is responsible for it?
The health & safety policy should sit at the heart of all organisation’s safety management systems. The importance of having effective safety management in place cannot be overestimated.
This is important for all businesses, large or small, whatever sector the business is in. It is also especially important in potentially high-risk sectors such as pharmaceutical manufacturing and the supply of medicines, areas where mistakes can have tragic consequences.
For example, in 2022 a pharmaceutical manufacturer was fined £51,000 and ordered to pay £104,898 costs for supplying a product with an active component which was just 12% of the prescribed strength. This critical failure resulted in a child becoming seriously ill.
A later investigation by the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) found that the company’s systems (the procedures meant to ensure appropriate manufacturing standards were being met) had not been properly followed, thus leading to a flawed product.
This webinar, written and delivered by a highly qualified safety management specialist will guide you through the requirements of a viable health & safety policy. Topics considered will include not only the need for risk assessments, but also the need to have effective communication systems in place.
This webinar considers topics in accordance not just with current Health & Safety Executive (HSE) advice but also with the requirements of ISO 45001, the international standard for health & safety.
