This is section 2 of a 30 section series around health and safety in the workplace.here are numerous reasons you may consider updating your company health and safety written documents. If adequate time has lapsed since the last inspection you should be considering about an update to the policy. Dont allow a year occur without some form of review, this should be the utmost time allowed. Legislation is as well a important factor and its your job to keep up to date and keep your employees informed by submitting any new legislation that may affect your company or any work you may carry out. You may accomplished a supervising exercise or maybe an probe that may spotlight an matter with flaws in your policy, this would hopefully incite you to survey and update. You will definitely have to do this if you get a enforcement notice against your company or business because if not you could be pursued or yet have your company or occupation shut down.Remember there is no set time on this matter it is a large legal grey field but demands an amount of common sense and commitment all i would state is that too often is better than not often enough. I would advise thinking of your safety documentation as a working progress that needs continual advancing and tweaking. Make sure you log all of your rewrites and surveys ready for anyone who requires to see the policy. this will determine you have respect as you are making health and safety seriously in your orgaisation.
