The office might not seem like the most dangerous kind of working environment, but even here there is plenty of scope for hazards to harm workers. Sitting all day at a computer can have a negative impact on health if staff aren’t trained in the safe use of their workstations. Organisations should carry out regular risk assessments also. These help uncover and eliminate any health issues that are showing signs of developing.
Undertaking health and safety risk assessments around the office is a legal requirement, but it can use up huge amounts of time and resource. This is why it often makes far more sense to use external consultants to carry out this task. A consultancy can bring in trained assessors to carry out risk assessments professionally and accurately. Quality consultants and assessors can help prevent illness and injury from occurring in the first place. Plus healthier working is more productive working. These dual benefits, reduced absenteeism and improved productivity, are the pay back for investing in health and safety.
