For businesses working in facilities management – such as hotels, gyms and hospitality settings, schools, local authority buildings or property management – implementing safe and effective health and safety systems is crucial for creating a risk-free environment.
Identifying and mitigating health and safety issues and hazards in facilities management is no small task; from the business’ premises to its tools and equipment, to the people that use the facilities, to the resources and documentation required to ensure compliance. There is plenty for you to do.
In dealing with health and safety in facilities management, you will face numerous challenges that need to be addressed. In addition to general business requirements, you will likely have industry-specific regulations and requirements.
