What do Safety Officers do?
A Safety Officer will have many core responsibilities that help to keep your workplace and employees safe, including developing and enforcing safety policies and investigating accidents. They will be responsible for conducting audits and inspections and ensuring compliance with all relevant legislation. They will also usually be responsible for training employees on the standards and protocols that are essential for maintaining safety in the workplace.Of course, a crucial role for Safety Officers is to investigate accidents in the workplace, including minor injuries and major incidents. A Safety Officer will examine the causes of an incident and determine the changes that need to be made in order to prevent similar occurrences in the future. All documentation relating to the incident will be taken care of by your Safety Officer and the process will include informing management and following up after the incident is resolved to ensure good practice and compliance and prevent future incidents.Your Health and Safety Policies are designed to protect the wellbeing of your team and any members of the public you work with, and your Safety Officer will usually be responsible for creating, maintaining and updating these.
