Outsourced Health and Safety – Benefits

outsourced health and safety benefits

On top of the multitude of other factors of running a business, one of the priorities should be health and safety. We understand that the business world is fast paced and there’s so much work to do but standards cannot slip in relation to keeping your employees, visitors and occupants safe as well as your tangible assets.

As businesses strive to comply with ever-evolving regulations and standards, the demand for specialised expertise in health and safety consulting is on the rise.

Many forward-thinking companies are recognising the advantages of outsourcing health and safety consulting services to dedicated professionals.

In this blog post, we will delve into the plethora of benefits of doing so as well as reasons why considering outsourced health and safety is a good idea.

Key benefits of outsourced health and safety include;-

  • Expertise and knowledge
  • Cost savings and efficiency
  • Flexibility and scalability
  • H&S concerns reduce
  • Access to latest technology
  • Improved levels of reporting

If you wish to arrange a health and safety consultation, please call us today at 01244 455277 or use our online contact form and Business Safety Solutions will get back to you promptly.

Expertise and Knowledge

By hiring an outsourced health and safety consultant you are of course inheriting a wealth of knowledge on a range of safety subjects.

There’s no second guessing about compliance of laws and regulations because the consultant will have seen this situation lots of times before and will know exactly what to do. Bigger companies with lots of consultants will also have specialists for certain areas such as fire or working at heights for example.

Latching onto this experience and knowledge is invaluable and could save you a lot of time and money in the long run. Staying ahead of all the latest industry trends, regulations, and best practices is crucial.

Cost Savings and Efficiency

One of the primary advantages of outsourcing health and safety consulting services is the potential for significant cost savings.

Employing in-house experts can be costly due to recruitment, training, and ongoing development expenses. Outsourcing allows businesses to tap into a wealth of expertise without the burden of full-time salaries and benefits.

If there is a particular issue you need sorting like a fire risk assessment or an emergency fire plan then using a health and safety consulting will be cheaper for jobs like this. 

Flexibility and Scalability

The flexibility of outsourcing your health and safety can be advantageous in times where expenditure needs to be clawed back or if health and safety measures need to be improved.

This flexibility also means a consultant or company can mould in accordance to a business’ needs and requirements at any given point.

This service agility ensures that resources are utilised efficiently, helping businesses to navigate fluctuations in demand without compromising on the quality of health and safety initiatives.

Health and Safety Concerns Disappear

Having a health and safety consultant on board means that your health and safety concerns are being dealt with by a professional team.

The people in your business can do what they do best without worrying about anything else. Delegating safety-related tasks to experts enables businesses to streamline their operations and enhance productivity.

Everything gets done and issues are dealt with appropriately by a professional. 

Access to the Latest Technology

A health and safety consultant will also use various bits of technology, software and programmes to aid the efficiency of various systems and exercises.

The time and effort saved using someone professional will reap dividends in the future. Outsourcing also provides businesses with access to state-of-the-art equipment without the need for heavy upfront investments.

Get in touch with our team today to find out more about these specifically because we’d love to show you some of our kit.

Improved Levels of Reporting

Once work is actually completed within the realm of health and safety there is a certain standard of reporting that is required.

This work is what we do every single day and the professional nature of an outsourced team will be able to comply with standards and legal issues with ease.

Not only does this help in avoiding regulatory fines but also fosters a culture of transparency and accountability, instilling confidence in stakeholders and customers alike.

Gary came to my Osteopathic CPD group on 10th October 2020 on a zoom seminar. This was to give us reassurance of the health and safety procedures we have put in place for Covid 19. Gary readily and kindly agreed, giving an excellent well prepared presentation and easily with expert knowledge answered all our questions. I also found it very reassuring and helpful as he showed the dentistry and physiotherapy risk assessments he had implemented . The presentation helped to give confidence and reassurance to myself and osteopathic colleagues, that we have implemented the correct procedures of health and safety with full PPE and professional duty of care. Also Gary has been to my practice and brought all my professional policies of duty up to date. Fire Safety, Risk assessment, pathways for my practitioner team due to Covid. What a relief to have all this help and support, so all is professionally and expertly documented to give me peace of mind so I can concentrate on my work. Thank you so much and I will certainly recommend you most Highly.

“I became aware of Gary when he was being assessed for two Wamitab qualifications of Level 4 (High Risk Operator Competence for Managing Transfer of Hazardous Waste) and (High Risk Operator Competence for Managing Physical and Chemical Treatment of Hazardous Waste). His Assessor drew my attention to him and suggested that he would make a good assessor. I took an interest in his portfolio and found it to be well above average. I would be pleased to have Gary as an assessor through adversity he maintained a dignified attitude. His personal qualities included having a calm demeanour, good communicative skills and traditional values.”

"As a small business, it can be hard to find a trusted partner for H&S. The safety of our team is paramount, though spiralling costs were a concern. Gary perfectly understood the reality of being an SME and tailored and delivered a H&S package and Covid-19 audit, that fitted perfectly in our organisation (and our budget), with a sensible and effective approach."
The Goodlife Outdoor CompanyManaging Director
Our business has faced many new challenges due to the Covid-19 situation. With ever changing guidelines and with such important things at stake, we needed help and assurances that we were doing everything we needed to do as an employer to protect staff and protect the business. BSS performed a workplace audit for us and also provided so much useful information and resources to assist the business with our new fluid workforce requirement. After spending time with us in the office, BSS sent us a comprehensive action plan that we used to make our place of work safe. Gary’s clearly an experienced professional as his delivery method made it easy for us to understand a situation that’s previously done nothing but confuse us. We now have confidence that we have done what is required and we have shown that we are a responsible employer which is so important for us. The process was very efficient and all the paperwork arrived within days, as promised by BSS. We highly recommend BSS to all small businesses who want peace of mind about the safety of their offices and home working for staff.
