HOW DID YOU START YOUR CAREER IN HEALTH AND SAFETY? I left school at 19 and went straight into the insurance sector. Two decades ago I was approached by Cooke and Mason Insurance Brokers (now part of PIB Group) to join them. After they set up a health and safety department, I moved into that specialist area. One of my first clients was a motor dealer and from then I started working with various dealers and tyre and exhaust centres across the UK I now sit on the Motor Vehicle Repair Forum and help overview the Motor Dealer Group Health and Safety Forum, both liaise with the HSE on improving health and safety within the automotive industry. It's not a profile exercise, we want to help, and anyone can get in touch about their health and safety issues. PIB IS AT THE CUTTING EDGE OF HEALTH AND SAFETY. WHAT HAVE BEEN THE KEY CHANGES SINCE YOU STARTED? Originally, it was just health and safety advice, visiting sites and carrying out inspections. Over the years we have become a lot more in-depth. We carry out gap analysis, audit reviews, risk assessments, safe systems of work, on-site risk analysis, workforce training, business continuity planning and fleet risk management. We also have a HR consultancy function. Helping tie it all together is our online risk management software, xCenta. |
