Regulation 7 of the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 requires employers to have access to competent health and safety advice. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) call this a ‘competent person’. They would need to have sufficient training, experience and knowledge and other qualities to assist you with legal compliance. For many companies employing a permanent or even part time health and safety professional, the costs can be prohibitive, so this is where we can help.
“You must have a ‘competent person’ to ensure compliance with Regulation 7 of the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999.”
