A series of free workshops to help businesses keep abreast of the latest health and safety laws is being launched by accountancy firm Monahans at its office in Trowbridge.

The first event – Health and Safety for Start-ups – on Tuesday September 29 will focus on what start-ups and small firms need to know in an often confusing area for businesses of all sizes.

The event is suitable for start-ups and businesses that are just about to or have recently taken on their first few employees.

Health and safety legislation will be broken down into bite-size chunks and attendees will be shown how to write an action plan for their organisation.

Monahans health and safety consultant Debbie Anstis, pictured, said: “Not knowing how to approach health and safety is a common problem for SMEs.  Entrepreneurs want to concentrate on growing their businesses, and the complexities of health and safety legislation can present a hurdle, especially when it comes to taking on employees.

“These interactive workshops will give people an understanding of what they need to do and how to ensure that documentation is structured correctly. By attending these workshops, companies will know what they need to do and how to do it in order to conform to legislation.”   

The workshop starts at 8.30am and will finish by 10am. Refreshments and pastries will be provided.

Further events focusing on setting up health and safety systems will take place on November 24 and on risk assessments and how to write them on February 24.

The workshops are also being held in Monahans’ Swindon office on Tuesday September 15, November 10 and February 10.
