OUR
COMPANY
Expert Advice
Our highly qualified, specialist team consults on all aspects of Health and Safety legislation, tailoring compliance services to the individual requirements of a variety of different businesses, both big and small. We have advised and continue to advise a number of blue chip companies and public bodies including; Asda, Cadbury, The Co-op, United Utilities, BP, Nestle, Land Securities and the NHS.
Partnerships
Over the years we’ve formed partnerships with international law firms for whom we act as expert witnesses. We’ve also become the recommended consultant for members of the Chamber of Commerce and the Association of Landlords.
We are a leading, independent, health, safety and environmental
compliance consultancy and are the longest established business of
its kind in the United Kingdom. Founded in the early 1980s, we were
initially a pioneer in asbestos management.
100% Commitment
We have worked in all sectors - from nuclear facilities to schools. More recently, we’ve introduced signed charters and pledges to clients like Asda and North Somerset Council, making public our 100% commitment to our clients, their suppliers, employees and the general public in ensuring that their facilities are completely safe.
Infrastructure
We continue to invest heavily in our people, our systems and our premises. We have opened offices all over the UK, including our flagship buildings in Leeds and at the Bradford University Science Park. This has enabled us to regionalise our delivery teams, meaning that we are now closer to our customers - many of whom have multiple sites across the UK – and are able to respond quickly and efficiently to their fast changing needs. We have also developed industry leading compliance software capable of simultaneously monitoring compliance across more than 60 statutory and duty of care areas.

What is Legionella/Legionnaires’ disease?
Legionnaires’ disease is a potentially fatal form of pneumonia that is caused by the Legionella bacterium present in natural and man-made water sources. Legionella thrives in water that is between 20 and 40 degrees and can often be found in, for example; hot and cold water systems, cooling towers, condensers, hot tubs, humidifiers and emergency showers.
Legionnaires’ disease is contracted through the inhalation of infected water droplets – which makes anyone susceptible. The following groups are, however, at a greater risk of getting the illness; people over 45 years old, smokers, heavy drinkers, people suffering from chronic respiratory or kidney disease and anyone with an impaired immune system.
How can we help?
OHS has an in-depth of knowledge in all aspects of Legionella management across the UK and Ireland. We have experience in all major sectors from public to commercial and industrial. Our regional network of offices enables us to efficiently manage Legionella control from single site businesses to major national multi-building contracts (running to thousands of sites). We are also fully accredited members of the Legionella Control Association and Water Management Society. You can be safe in the knowledge that we will ensure you are fully compliant.

OHS Fire Safety Management System - Knowledge Chain
Through our trademarked Fire Safety knowledge chain, OHS provides a full range of Fire Safety services. Once implemented into your business it provides a step by step route to achieve 100% legislative compliance.
A full review of existing Fire Safety Management System (FSMS) including policies, organisation, procedures, monitoring and audit process to contribute to a gap analysis.
Carry out either a new Fire Risk Assessment or a re-inspection to meet the requirements of the Fire Safety Order (FSO) 2005, which is a statutory obligation for the Responsible Person (RP) under the FSO. This will include both management systems and premises.
As a result of the FRA we will provide the RP with a comprehensive action plan based on a Risk Prioritisation System to ensure the safety of users of the premise/ venue and compliance is achieved. In order to ensure the action plan is successfully implemented, OHS can provide on-going support and consultancy through training, periodic reviews, 1-2-1 coaching. Where actions require physical improvements, OHS is able to provide basic remedial works and assist you in obtaining best value from any contracted services you may need.
All risk assessments require periodic monitoring and review and fire safety is no exception. As a guide the FRA must be reviewed at least annually or as often as is required (when for example there are changes in working practice, occupancy or building use). As part of our process we are committed to providing all the support and advice required.
By following steps 1-5, and working in partnership with OHS, we are confident that we will be able to provide you with the level of compliance required for your business and more importantly a safe working environment.

How can we help?
We believe that CDM falls down during conceptual phase of the design stage, where key health and safety hazards are missed. At OHS we pride ourselves in taking a practical and proactive approach to helping you avoid these mistakes by ensuring you comply with the ‘Construction Design & Management Regulations 2007’. Each member of our ‘CDM Team’ has a different specialism, including; architecture, civil engineering, insurance and the public sector, something that gives us a wealth of experience and expertise. Our thorough, step by step approach begins with a site audit in order to identify any initial safety concerns. Once this is done the whole team will consult on all the relevant drawings in order to help establish a perfectly safe design prior to the submittal of any planning applications.
The OHS CDM team brings a vast amount of experience covering all sectors. Having a number of offices across the United Kingdom allows OHS to provide CDM coordinator services nationally.

Current planning legislation within the United Kingdom is stringent. This has led to a growing trend of redevelopment of brownfield sites to accommodate new construction and infrastructure projects. Until the middle of the 1980s asbestos was used as a common building material in many industrial sites and other structures. Current legislation ensures that asbestos is removed from buildings and structures and disposed of in a correct manner. Unfortunately many of these historic buildings were demolished in-situ. As well as this, demolition materials arising from others sites have been disposed of in brownfield locations. These demolition materials often contain asbestos and free fibres that integrate with the soil structure. Of greatest concern are bonded materials which can weather overtime and become friable.
Through ground investigation works and analysis of data, many brownfield sites contain asbestos at a level above the hazardous waste threshold. This can lead to subsequent exposure of personnel and substantial delays to construction projects through unplanned remediation works. Since the 1990s, quantitative methods using polarised light microscopy have been developed to measure the asbestos fibre content within a soil sample. Currently, this process is undertaken to determine the land’s classification as ‘hazardous’ or ‘non-hazardous’ to form a basis of planning and future use.
How can we help?
OHS can help you assess the extent and scale of asbestos contamination through site investigation, air monitoring, and quantitative asbestos analysis through UKAS accredited laboratories and assessments of risk. Together with a consultant driven approach, the development of project specific remediation strategies, site management, verification and validation of remedial works will ensure regulation compliance through the planning, implementation and management of projects.
Site remediation options include the use of capping layers, mechanical screening, soil washing and excavation of soil deemed to produce unacceptable concentrations of airborne asbestos and subsequent safe disposal. These are often used in conjunction with safe system of works during deep excavations and pilling activities.

Legislation
The Equality Act 2010 requires employers, service providers, educational and other qualifying bodies to make reasonable adjustments to their premises and environment, and to provide auxiliary aids as necessary for people with disabilities.
What a “reasonable adjustment” is will depend on the circumstances of each organisation and each property, as well as the cost of the proposed changes itself. In terms of future developments, businesses must think ahead and address the potential barriers to people with disabilities using their services.
How can we help?
As an Organisation/business you are more likely to achieve “best practice and improve inclusivity” if you arrange for one of our consultants to undertake an Access Audit of your premises. This audit will identify barriers to disabled people and put in place a strategy of reasonable adjustments to improve inclusivity and accessibility. We will also assist in developing an action plan for on-going improvements to accessibility. Acting on the results of such an evaluation will increase the profile of your business, open it up to all, and may even increase your profitability. Our regional offices also ensure that you are provided with a local service, nationwide.

What is radon?
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can seep out of the ground and build up in houses, schools, public buildings and indoor workplaces. The highest levels are usually found in underground spaces such as basements, caves and mines. High concentrations are also found in ground floor buildings because they are usually at slightly lower pressure than the surrounding atmosphere; this allows radon from the sub-soil underneath buildings to enter through cracks and gaps in the floor.
Radon is invisible; you can’t see it, smell it or taste it, and its presence in your home or workplace can pose a danger to you and your family’s health. Breathing in radon is the second largest cause of lung cancer in the UK resulting in up to 2000 fatal cancers per year.
RADON
MANAGEMENT
Legal requirements
Employers are required by the Management of Health and Safety Regulations at Work 1999, to assess risks from radon in workplaces in affected areas, and this usually requires a measurement. The Ionizing Radiations Regulations 1999 requires action to protect employees if the average radon gas concentration exceeds 400 Bq m-3 (becquerels per cubic metre of air).
How can we help?
OHS can offer testing and monitoring services for all kinds of clients. If you require analysis of radon concentrations within buildings, ground-soil or water supplies, we can provide a testing solution for you.
