FREE safety performance self-assessment!

Self-assess your safety performance and take advantage of free (optional) telephone advice!

RoSPA is pleased to introduce a new scheme designed to help organisation's assess where they are now and where they need to be in terms of health and safety performance.

Just completing the quick self-assessment questionnaire can be enough to guide you in the right direction. However, if you feel that you could benefit from some expert advice, or just want confirmation that you're on the right track, then take advantage of our free telephone consultation scheme.

Simply complete the self-assessment, and press submit. You will then be contacted by one of RoSPA's safety advisors who will use the information that you have supplied as a basis on which to make recommendations for further action.

Health and Safety Self-Assessment
