Retained Health & Safety Advisory Service

​

Managing health and safety in construction is not a one-off task — it requires consistent oversight, advice, and support throughout the life of a project or across a company’s operations. Many contractors, developers, and project directors benefit from having an experienced safety professional on hand without the cost of employing a full-time specialist.

My Retained Health & Safety Advisory Service offers exactly that: ongoing, flexible support tailored to your business or project needs. Acting as your “competent person” under Regulation 7 of the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, I provide expert guidance, practical solutions, and documentation to keep your operations legally compliant and risk-aware.

 

The Benefits

  • Compliance assurance – ensures your company meets its legal duties under HSWA 1974, CDM 2015, and supporting regulations.

  • Cost-effective – access professional safety advice without the expense of a full-time hire.

  • Continuity – regular support helps identify issues early, before they become costly or dangerous.

  • Tailored to scale – packages can be adjusted to suit project size, complexity, duration, and workforce numbers.

  • Client confidence – demonstrates proactive management of health and safety to stakeholders and regulators.

 

What’s Included

Depending on your needs, retained services can include:

  • Acting as your named competent person.

  • Regular site inspections and reports.

  • Support with RAMS, CPPs, and site documentation.

  • Attendance at client and contractor meetings.

  • Ongoing advice via phone or email.

  • Assistance during audits, investigations, or prequalification processes.

 

Why It Matters

HSE enforcement often identifies a lack of competent advice as a root cause of non-compliance. By securing a retained advisor, your company ensures a consistent line of defence against risk and liability. It also reassures clients that health and safety is being actively managed by a dedicated professional.

​

👉 Think of it as having a health and safety specialist “on call” — always available to protect your project, your people, and your business.
