Employment and Health & Safety Protection

Employment law is always changing and employees are now far more aware of their rights. Health and safety can be a minefield with regulations, enforcement and prosecutions continually expanding. How can you keep on top of all this whilst running your business at the same time? Meet Employment and Health & Safety Protection.

What is Employment and Health & Safety Protection?
As the name suggests, Employment and Health & Safety Protection is a complete risk management package that is cost-effective and tailored to suit your business.

  • It removes the risk of costly employment claims from hiring to firing
  • It reduces the risk and costs of an HSE or local authority prosecution
  • It cuts down on the risk of falling foul of data protection laws

We carry out a complete review of contracts and procedures to ensure your business complies with the latest employment and health & safety regulations. You then get unlimited advice and support from our highly experienced team, with the added peace of mind of insurance to protect against the cost of Employment Tribunal claims and HSE/local authority prosecutions.

Why do I need Employment and Health & Safety Protection?
Employment Tribunal claims have rocketed in recent years, with the cost of awards against employers spiralling. Health and safety regulators are also taking a more aggressive approach, matched by increasingly stiffer penalties from the courts, including large fines and even imprisonment. And companies which don’t keep a hold on their customers’ personal information face fines of up to £250,000.

Failing to avoid the many pitfalls of employment, health & safety and data protection legislation is an ever costlier business for any organisation, regardless of size. The potential damage to your reputation, and the amount of time such events take up, make the problem even worse.

Our package gives you unlimited access to an extensive team of experienced solicitors and HR experts. They will give you support and peace of mind throughout all stages of the employment process and the management of health and safety risks.
