Covid-19 Risk Assessment Services

The Coronavirus has created the most challenging and difficult time for us all.

With lockdown being eased and workers starting to return to work, it falls to the responsible person of businesses to ensure the safety of employees, visitors, contractors and the public and to meet the requirements of current legislation.

Each company has its own workplace challenges. Here we explore the remote services we can offer your business at this difficult time.

COVID-19 Risk Assessments

A risk assessment is a legal requirement for employers to keep their staff safe whilst they are at work and Covid-19 is another risk that must be assessed along with outlining the required steps to limit this risk – to ensure the health, safety and welfare of employees in the workplace.

You should involve members of your management team and other employees in this process. You will be evaluating what safeguarding measures may need to be implemented to prevent harm to your employees and or visitors to the premises.

It is important to update or create policies for Covid-19, in this case, particularly surrounding social distancing and workplace hygiene.

Other areas to be addressed include:

  • Having guidance and instruction to follow
  • Displaying signage
  • Having hand sanitizer available
  • Sanitizing workstations and equipment
  • Eliminating / reducing visitors

The Government have published these guides to help businesses. Some businesses may need more than one of the guides to ensure people are safe.

Should you be unfamiliar with the scary and serious world of health and safety but need a professional but practical assessment of your situation, I cannot recommend Emma at Walker Health and Safety highly enough. While she provided me with a detailed report, she took considerable effort to tackle my many detailed questions afterwards, all of which were delivered with professionalism and a smile. For her, nothing was too much trouble.

Rob Motoring Journalist
We are a start-up business and came to Walker Health and Safety Services with little to no knowledge of what we needed to do ensure that our business maintained the highest standards of HSE. Emma guided us through the process and made recommendations which we implemented to ensure that we adhere to the higher of best practice and legal standards (at our request). We have been audited by two international customers who were unable to identify any shortcomings and requested sight of multiple documents all of which we were immediately able to provide. It was satisfying to be able to show that we took HSE seriously and were a well prepared and a professional organization. I definitely felt that Emma's services were money well spent and we value her advice which is always proportionate and sensible.

The Battery Box
As a voluntarily run recreation ground, with several sporting clubs, a social club and significant general amenity use by the public, the prospect of updating our inadequate H&S provision was daunting. Emma helped and guided us and, thankfully, told us to keep it simple but thorough. This gave us the encouragement we needed and knowing Emma was on hand as and when required was very reassuring. We would recommend her services to you: competent, professional, and understanding.

Walker Health and Safety have helped us with getting our ISO 45001. Emma is very professional and helpful plus very friendly to work with. We get a lot of guidance and advice on improving our business system.

Portland Lighting Limited
It was a pleasure to work with Emma, she assisted in helping us get Chas up and running. Or should I say that she pretty much sorted it all for us, as we didn't know what we were doing. She was very knowledgeable, kind and helpful, and she brought biscuits! ;-) I would highly recommend this firm.
