Penalties and Benefits
Health and safety regulations must be followed. Inadequate health and safety practices can lead to accidents, incidents, and ill health, which can negatively affect the business, its employees, and its individual directors and senior managers.
It is crucial that you comply with current UK laws under the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974. A serious breach of the law (sections two-six of the policy) is punishable by an unlimited fine and, potentially, two years imprisonment.
Maintaining high standards is essential for any business, whether a construction company, a retail store, or an office environment. Contact ABH Safety Services today to lead and consult your business’s Health and Safety procedures.
