Construction & Maintenance

Accidents at work are most common in the construction and maintenance industry and consequently the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) focus a lot of their energy upon this sector. Due to insurance requirements, Principal Contractors are becoming much tougher with their sub-contractors with regard to safety at work.

AHS Ltd specialise in helping small construction firms win business. They employ us to satisfy safety at work legislation documentation and provide evidence of a safety culture.

Small business owners cannot afford a full time health & safety manager nor do they have the time to get involved in detailed legislative requirements themselves. Outsourcing your health and safety function is the only cost effective way to stay within the law and become known by your principal contractors as a low risk. Thus increasing the likelihood of your company winning more contracts.

In the first year we get involved by doing the paper work for you. Then over time by coaching staff how to do it themselves we drop into an advisory role. We are different because we are happy to get stuck in and be a member of your team when required to do so
