As all employers are all too aware, accidents will happen. When it is the workplace there is always a question as to how they happened in the first place. To this end all employers with an office space need to have several factors in place. First of all there needs to be protective insurance against damage and an employee getting hurt. There is also the question of obtaining public liability. The building that you inhabit and work from should be insured and a set of rules laid down either by yourself or, if you are leasing, the buildings manager.

 

Employees must be aware that the responsibility of personal safety also lies with themselves. They should not do something that puts their person at risk. For example, they should have regular fire drills and access to the fire fighting equipment but the staff should not be expected to fight the fire themselves. If chemicals are on the premises then a COSHH sign should be up and health and safety training should occur regularly.
