BeSmart - Safety Statements for Small Businesses

Every company must have a Safety Statement under Section 20 of the Safety Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 Act

The Safety Statement represents a commitment to their safety and health. It should state how the employer will ensure their safety and health and state the resources necessary to maintain and review safety and health laws and standards. 

 

In order to help companies, the HSA (Health and Safety Authority) have a free online Safety Management and Risk Assessment Tool where you can create your own Safety Statement including Risk Assessments- here is a link to it https://www.besmart.ie/
