Gilbertson Kitchener defines an accident as an unplanned or uncontrolled (adverse) event that has or could have resulted in injury, damage or loss to an individual or organisation.
Effective accident investigation is not only a moral and legal duty; it also represents sound commercial sense, as identifying and addressing the root causes of accidents guards against future incidents. A thorough investigation of an accident is also a positive visible demonstration of your commitment to safety.
Gilbertson Kitchener Accident Investigation support service has been designed to help you ensure that a thorough and unbiased investigation takes place that explores all lines of enquiry and results in a prioritised remedial action plan designed to minimise the likelihood of similar accidents happening again.
A Gilbertson Kitchener consultant will help you to swiftly identify and assess a wide range of evidence to determine both the immediate and underlying factors as well as the effectiveness of your accident response arrangements. A detailed report will be produced that describes the accident causes and includes a comprehensive and prioritised action plan.
Subsequent to your receipt of the investigation report and adoption of a remedial action plan, Gilbertson Kitchener consultant can, if required, support its systematic implementation as well as verifying by audit that objectives have been met.
New fire laws place an increasing emphasis on your legal duty to carry out formal fire risk assessments. The Fire Brigade will soon have the power to revoke fire safety certificates, and in the event of a serious fire incident, prosecution proceedings could be brought against those found to have carried out an insufficient Fire Risk Assessment-particularly if Fire Rescue personnel are injured while attending an incident.
A Gilbertson Kitchener consultant will assess a broad range of risk factors including sources of ignition, means of escape, warning systems, and risk to personnel. Using a numeric rating scale ( qualitative risk analysis), combined with qualitative review, the Gilbertson Kitchener consultant will be able to make clear, even to busy management, the significance of any risks found. During consultation with the client, an initial action plan can also be developed to facilitate change if needed.Gilbertson Kitchener Fire Risk Assessment offers a highly flexible approach as users of the service can add further risk factors to the assessment where they may apply.
Our consultants are experienced in carrying out workplace inspections to assess conditions and compliance with legal and best practice requirements. The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations place many requirements on employers to maintain a healthy and safe workplace, and Gilbertson Kitchener consultants can assess, monitor and report on compliance with these regulations, and others, and produce a detailed report with recommendations for improvement where appropriate. The aim is to provide clients with common sense suggestions as to how they can better protect the health, safety and welfare of their employees, at a sensible cost.
The need to carry out suitable and sufficient risk assessments of activities and workplaces lies at the heart of most modern legislation. For example you need to risk assess the following areas:
Gilbertson Kitchener consultants can assist organisations in complying with their legal requirement, working with your employees to produce detailed and suitable risk assessments that can then be used to improve workplace conditions, working methods and training, amongst other issues. The Gilbertson Kitchener consultant acts as an external expert; advising on the risk assessment process and suitable risk controls, utilising the knowledge and experience of those carrying out the work or otherwise using the workplace.
