RISK MANAGMENT SERVICES


We can help you with your Safety Policy, development of safety management systems, development of general and specialised risk assessments and audits of your legal compliance.


Ideally suited for start-up businesses or those which are growing and need personal guidance regarding the myriad of legal duties which abound regarding health and safety legislation. Regardless of your industry and basic risk profile we have a support solution for you.


For the sake of flexibility Sospitas offers two levels of consultancy service:

Option 1: Day-rate Consultancy


A daily consultancy rate will be charged for any work undertaken.  The scope of work will allways be agreed in the form of specific objectives with the client to ensure that each party fully understands what services will be provided.

Option 2: Retained competent person service


For an annual charge the business has the right to nominate Sospitas Ltd as their 'Competent Person' to satisfy the requirements of The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999. The service includes site visits,  liaison with the enforcing authority and accident investigations

SPECIALIST CONSULTATION


We have a range of occupational health assessments that we can provide.  The most frequently requested services in our range are noise assessments and musculoskeletal analyses.


The charity, Action on Hearing Loss estimate that 1 in 6 people in the UK have hearing loss and the second biggest cause of this is exposure to loud noise.


At Sospitas we specialise in noise assessments, produce clear easy to understand reports and can generate recommendations for noise control solutions for the client which are both practical and effective

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMSDs), while not life threatening, can impair the life quality and mobility of large numbers of the working population.  In the UK (2018/2019) 498,000 workers were suffering from WRMSDs which accounted for 6.9 million working days lost - source HSE


At Sospitas we have a long history of assessment of work which poses the risk of both back and upper-limb injury. We can also advise on practical and effective controls and strategies to avert such risks.

TRAINING COURSES


Whatever your training needs in terms of topics or depth of skill and knowledge required we have a training course for you.  

Bespoke packages, tailored to you specific needs, are also available on application.


All courses will be structured with an overall training aim and associated learning objectives.  To ensure that the traning has been successful each delegate/learner would assessed individually - by final assessment and/or by peer review (face-to-face interview with the tutor).  These outcomes will be then sent to the client employer to be retained as part of the employee's personnel record as proof of training success/completion.


Every learner wil be issued with an appropriate personalised certificate of attendance/completion forming a part of their own learning portfolio.


NOTE: all courses are designed to be delivered either in-company face-to-face or via an online learing platform - especially relevant during the current pandemic and restrictions thereof.  Online delivery will require learners to have access to PC/laptop with webcam, microphone and audio output (headphones/speakers).
