Health and Safety Consultancy

Well, are you? It’s an important question for any business owner or director. There are approved codes of practice – ACOPs – covering many areas of business operation.

Although ACOPs are not the law, everything in an Approved Code of Practice has special legal status. If an incident happens and your business has not been following recognised best practice, then the courts are far more likely to find against you.

At First Class Safety we specialise in helping businesses comply with their legal obligations and make sure they are following best practice in every area – from shop floor to office and from practical safety to paperwork. Plus, we don’t just do health and safety: we will soon be able to help with human resources too.

On this site you can find out more about us and the services we offer – both on your premises and at our dedicated FCS Centre near Junction 1 of the M6.

Our new versatile and comfortable training and conference centre is now available for hire in Rugby.
