Health & Safety for Small and Medium-Sized Businesses
Good Health & Safety does not need to be complicated.
Many smaller businesses know they have Health & Safety responsibilities but are unsure exactly what documentation, assessments and procedures they need.
We identify the significant risks relevant to your business and concentrate on what actually needs to be done.
Our aim is to provide proportionate arrangements that protect employees, contractors, customers and other people who may be affected by your activities while allowing your business to operate efficiently.
We can review what you already have, identify any significant gaps and help you put appropriate arrangements in place.
Construction Health & Safety Consultant Worthing
Ambergreen Safety provides practical Health & Safety support to contractors and construction businesses operating in Worthing and throughout West Sussex.
Construction support can include:
- Construction Phase Plans
- Risk Assessments and Method Statements
- Construction site Health & Safety inspections
- Contractor assessments
- CDM advice
- Health & Safety policies
- Site procedures
- Competence arrangements
- SSIP and contractor accreditation
- Tender documentation
- Ongoing Competent Person support
Our approach is based on the actual work being undertaken and the significant risks involved.
Competent Person Health & Safety Support
Employers are required to have access to competent Health & Safety assistance.
For many small and medium-sized businesses, employing a full-time Health & Safety manager is neither necessary nor cost-effective.
Ambergreen Safety can provide ongoing Competent Person support, giving your business access to professional Health & Safety advice when it is needed.
This can include telephone and email advice, document reviews, policy support, risk management assistance and additional consultancy according to your requirements.
Risk Assessments and RAMS
Risk assessments should identify the significant hazards associated with your activities and set out sensible precautions to control those risks.
We can prepare, review or improve workplace and activity risk assessments and provide clear Risk Assessments and Method Statements for contractors and construction projects.
Documents are written to reflect the actual work being undertaken rather than relying on unnecessary generic paperwork.
Health & Safety Audits and Inspections
A Health & Safety audit or workplace inspection can help identify weaknesses before they result in accidents, enforcement action or disruption to your business.
We provide practical findings and recommendations, concentrating on significant issues and reasonable actions.
Inspections can be provided as a one-off service or incorporated into continuing Health & Safety support.
Health & Safety Documentation
Ambergreen Safety can prepare and review the documentation businesses need to manage Health & Safety effectively.
This can include:
- Health & Safety policies
- Safety Management Systems
- Risk assessments
- Method Statements
- COSHH assessments
- Workplace procedures
- Inspection records
- Accident arrangements
- Contractor documentation
- Construction documentation
- Training records and arrangements
Documentation is designed to be understandable, proportionate and practical to maintain.
SSIP, CHAS, SafeContractor and Constructionline Support
Contractors are increasingly required to demonstrate their Health & Safety competence before they can tender for or undertake work.
We can assist businesses with Health & Safety requirements associated with SSIP schemes and contractor assessment systems including CHAS, SafeContractor and Constructionline.
We can review existing documentation, identify what is missing and help prepare the information needed to demonstrate appropriate Health & Safety arrangements.
Industries We Support
Our experience extends across a variety of working environments and sectors, including:
- Construction
- Engineering
- Healthcare
- Logistics
- Landscaping
- Animal welfare
- Recreational activities
- Contractors and subcontractors
- Offices and commercial businesses

Every business is different, so our advice is based on the activities and risks of the individual organisation.
