A health and safety audit is the foundation for building a strong and effective safety management system. Our role is to visit your workplace/school , identify any hazards that could lead to accidents or near misses, and work with you to put reasonable, practical measures in place to reduce those risks.
During the audit, we assess your organisation against your existing health and safety management system, such as HSG65. If you don’t currently have a formal system in place, the audit helps you understand where your business stands in managing health and safety and what needs to be improved.
From there, we support you in creating a clear action plan to strengthen your safety performance and ensure you meet all mandatory legal requirements.

This is where RHQ Safety & Compliance step in as your trusted Health & Safety advisors and your legally required ‘competent person’.
We help you stay compliant, confident, and fully supported.
