It is a requirement of the Health & Safety at Work Regulations to appoint someone with the necessary training, experience and knowledge to help you manage health and safety within your business.

There may already be someone within your organisation performing the role of competent person. However, unless you can be sure they possess the right qualifications and knowledge, a much simpler and often cost effective solution is to appoint 5e consulting as your competent person. In doing so, you are assured of using suitably trained, expert health and safety professionals, who will be on hand to provide unlimited telephone and email support.

In addition, using a health and safety specialist as your competent person improves your credibility and provides evidence of this role as part of a contract tender process or the pursuit of SSIP accreditation via CHAS, ConstructionLine, Achilles or other accreditation organisation.
