It is a legal requirement that all companies with 5 or more employees must maintain a written record of arrangements in place for planning, organisation, control, monitoring and review of the health and safety measures.

Management of various health and safety related documentation for office and on a construction site can be a headache. Construction related companies have to maintain a Health and Safety Policy, Procedures for office and site, Risk Assessments and Method Statements (RAMS), Site Health and Safety Folders/Records (to include CPP, PCI, Permit to Work, Induction, Tool Box Talks, Training Records, PAT Testing, Fire Risk Assessments, Fire Emergency Plans, COSHH Assessments, MSDS etc, the list is huge.

Finding the required document, form or record when urgently needed can be a problem and time-wasting exercise if not properly managed. This can be quite a costly situation especially in case of a site visit by HSE Inspector or dealing with a prosecution or claim situation.

Organised health and safety documentation manuals/folders for office and construction sites is a starting point to good health and safety arrangements for construction related companies.

At Safescope we have developed expertise in developing electronic and hard copy (as required) indexing and filing system i.e. Health and Safety Manual for all related documentation and records to be used in construction related company office and on sites. The system allows for all required documents and records to be be accessed, filed and stored at a single centralised location. The documents can then be easily reviewed, amended, updated and replaced as necessary without any hassle or time wasting.

The above Health and Safety Manual and Site Folders are prepared in a nice presentable and professional style format in electronic or hard copy format (as required).
