Health & Safety
Drive continuous improvement with our support for HSEQ teams
You may have an in-house health and safety presence and systems in place to manage all hazards. But why stop there?
At WorkNest H&S, we understand that as your business grows, developing a strong health and safety culture, demonstrating good corporate governance, and ensuring greater transparency in reporting practices becomes even more important. You’re also more likely to face scrutiny should things go wrong.

How we help
Bespoke projects and consultancy to complement internal HSEQ teams
Our expert consultants support established health and safety teams to deliver bespoke projects and consultancy services designed to enhance your current systems, improve your claims defensibility, and embed health and safety into your organisation at every level.
We can also work alongside your internal teams on an ongoing basis to provide added resource, offer an extra layer of expertise, or just to give you the benefit of a professional second opinion.
Whether you’re keen to ensure consistency across multiple locations, motivated to increase employee engagement in health and safety, or just looking for an external stamp of approval, we have the solutions to support you on the next stage of your safety journey.

We moved our legal support to WorkNest (formerly Law at Work) having previously used a time and line law firm. It was important, though, that an all-inclusive fee structure did not come at the expense of quality. Thankfully we’ve been delighted with the service we’ve received from WorkNest.”
