Our team of IRCA-accredited auditors have extensive experience across various industry sectors.

      What is a health & safety management system?

      A safety management system (SMS) is a structured approach to effectively manage and improve safety performance within an organisation. It incorporates policies, procedures, and practices designed to identify, assess, and control workplace hazards and risks.

      Key components of a safety management system typically include hazard identification, risk assessment, incident reporting and investigation, employee training, emergency preparedness, and continuous improvement through regular monitoring and evaluation.

      Why is a safety management system important?

      By implementing a safety management system, businesses can proactively prevent accidents, injuries, and illnesses, while promoting a culture of safety and compliance. 

      A robust safety management system helps companies maintain a safe & healthy work environment for their employees, contractors, and internal/external stakeholders while ensuring compliance with the required and recommended standards.

      We can support you in 4 ways:

      Develop, monitor or improve your safety management system

      Our consultants specialise in designing Practical, Helpful, Sensible and Concise systems. We can support you from developing the initial concept of your management system right through to achieving accreditation with external auditors. In doing so, we can help you to meet your in-house objectives or achieve accreditation to a recognised standard, such as:

      We do not prepare complex and heavy manuals. Simple flow charts, visual aids, and check sheets are used to record and implement your management system. This way, they can be understood by all employees and easily put into practice.

      For organisations with quality management systems (QMS) such as ISO 9000, we can ensure that our design of your SMS will be integrated to avoid duplication and to ensure it is put into practice smoothly.

      An integrated approach to safety management

      Successful organisations are increasingly realising the benefits of an integrated approach to safety management, by linking them with their quality management and environmental management systems. This has many advantages as your one system will embrace all areas of your business, from strategy, finance, human resources, marketing, and product design to manufacturing and operating systems, information management, and front-line staff. The difficulty though, is where to start.

      Our sister company QCS International Ltd is the perfect partner to help get you started, advise on what you need to do, and even do it for you by becoming your outsourced specialist.
