How do I Benefit?
Even the most basic business needs a Hazard Register; an Accident Register and an Emergency Plan and can face substantial fines for not having them in place.
A lost time injury can put an immature business in a perilous position.
For Example a lost time injury lasting more than a week can really put stress on a company
- 1st week the company pays 80% of the wages
- There is the cost of getting and training a replacement.
- Lost income from failure to meet client deadlines
- Loss of reputation
- Potential to be prosecuted or fined – legal fees
Comply helps create an environment that reduces the likelihood of incidents occurring and if they do occur it gives the client a system for managing it.
