Health & Safety Research

[Donoghue89]

Hello everyone,

I am doing a course in Customer Services and I am on the Health and Safety unit and I need to do some re-search about it.

If any one would be able to help I would appreciate it, I need to research the following question.

Describe your organisations procedures for healthy and safety and the types of documents used.

If you mean, what do companies have as standard practice to safeguard themselves as a business and their employees/ customers & contractors, then for starters most will have outlined:
* Health & Safety Policy document
* Health & Safety Procedure document
* Risk Assessments - for staff & contractors, departments & Buildings
* Emergency Action Plans & procedures
* Disaster Action Plans & Procedures
* (some, if required have) Terrorist Risk Assessments & Action Plans
* Fire evacuation procedure
* First Aid Procedure
* Training records for all staff - First aid/ de-fib & fire
* Emergency contacts on file (HR)
* Professional conduct/ Drug & Alcohol policy
* Workspace Risk Assessments
* Reporting H&S Issues procedure
* Working with children policy/ procedures (if required)
* Manual Handling training
etc, etc to start you off :-)
