We structure client safety around the Health and Safety Executive’s recognized HSG65 standard (*Plan, Do, Check, Act*). We begin by establishing a legally defensible baseline, then progressively elevate your organizational resilience.
A qualified Chartered IOSH consultant visits your premises to conduct an objective diagnostic audit, benchmarking your current operations against statutory UK regulations.
We author bespoke, defensible policies, activity-specific RAMS, and deliver focused staff instruction across critical areas: working at height, COSHH, and manual handling.
Scheduled inspections, mock audits, and near-miss monitoring verify that control measures function effectively on the ground and satisfy insurance underwriters.
Annual operational reviews, statutory policy updates, and direct consultant advocacy if ever challenged by the HSE, local EHOs, or civil claim solicitors.
Health and safety compliance should liberate your business to win larger contracts, not strangle operations in red tape. Here is how we differ from generic providers:
You are assigned a dedicated, qualified consultant who conducts physical visits to your site, learns your team culture, and is directly reachable on mobile and direct email.
We represent the business owner who employs us. We stand beside you during unannounced HSE inspections, defend your arrangements before EHOs, and challenge unreasonable insurer demands.
No 3-year or 5-year lock-in clauses. We believe our clients stay because we provide outstanding, pragmatic value every single month—not because they are trapped by small print.
Independently certified to BS EN ISO 9001 (Quality) and ISO 14001 (Environmental) valid to Jan 2029, Cyber Essentials, and corporate members of the British Safety Council and Fire Protection Association.
Real feedback from real client partners across education, manufacturing, logistics, and primary care.
"A huge weight has been lifted. The high quality of MBHS audit reports informs our Governing Body and satisfies OFSTED inspectors, freeing our leadership team to focus on educational delivery."
"MBHS was the only consultancy that clearly stated what they do, delivered it without complications, and established sustained consistency across our distribution operations."
"Running community workshop sheds in an ambulance-chasing culture is daunting. MBHS replaced confusing bureaucracy with a balanced, common-sense approach that protects our volunteers."
Clear, definitive answers to statutory questions UK directors face under current health and safety legislation.
Under Regulation 7 of the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, every UK employer is legally obligated to appoint one or more competent persons to assist them in meeting health and safety duties. While internal staff can be appointed if suitably qualified, businesses without dedicated in-house health and safety professionals must appoint external chartered specialists like MBHS.
Under Section 2(3) of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, employers with five or more employees must prepare and regularly revise a written statement of general policy with respect to health and safety, describing the organization and specific arrangements in place to carry out the policy.
A DSEAR assessment under the Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations 2002 is mandatory whenever flammable gases, flammable solvent-based paints, combustible sawdust, bulk diesel/petrol storage, chemical synthesis, or battery charging stations are present on commercial premises.
Traditional high-volume consultancy firms routinely trap business owners into aggressive 3 to 5 year rolling contracts that are nearly impossible to cancel. MBHS operates exclusively on transparent 1-year agreements based on mutual trust, measurable compliance performance, and annual operational reviews.
As your appointed Competent Person, MBHS provides immediate emergency telephone advice, assists with statutory RIDDOR notifications to the HSE, reviews incident root causes, and physically attends interviews or site meetings to defend your defensible compliance position.
Protect your workforce, satisfy commercial tender vetting, and defend your business against enforcement fines without lock-in contracts.
