Health & Safety doesn’t have to mean boring manuals, endless tick-boxes, or confusing jargon. If you’ve got five or more staff, there are a few essentials you need to cover, but it can be simple, even fun!

Think of it like a game: check the boxes, see what’s done, spot what’s missing… and maybe even grab a coffee while you do it. That’s where our Health & Safety Bingo Card comes in. It’s a quick and easy way to see if your business has all the basics in place.

What is Health & Safety Legislation?

In short, Health & Safety law exists to keep everyone at work safe and well. It covers things like:

  • Spotting and managing risks
  • Providing protective equipment
  • Making sure everyone knows the safe way to do things

The main rules come from the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 and supporting regulations, but don’t worry you don’t need to memorise them. The key is showing you’re taking practical steps to keep your team safe.

Who’s in Charge?

Every business must appoint a ‘competent person’ – someone with the knowledge and experience to manage Health & Safety.

  • For small businesses, this is often the owner (yep, that could be you!).
  • For larger teams, it could be a manager, supervisor, or even an external expert (hello 👋).

We can help! Having an outsourced consultant like us takes the stress off your plate. You won’t need to hire someone full time, and you can be confident that your Health & Safety is being properly managed, even if your team is busy with other tasks.

Why Play the Health & Safety Bingo?

Our Bingo Card makes checking compliance easy and even a little fun:

  • Tick off what you already have
  • Spot the things you might be missing
  • See where a little help could make life easier

It’s a friendly way to make sure the basics are covered, without drowning in paperwork.
