Do You Need Help With HR or Health and Safety in Your Charity?
We understand the importance of providing customised health and safety solutions to charities. Our goal is to ensure the well-being of all staff, volunteers, and the public. For charities, prioritising health and safety is essential for maintaining their operations and continuing their vital work. Some of the significant challenges impacting the charity sector include:
- Staff Safety – Keeping employees and volunteers safe can be difficult for charities when they work alone off-site. Employers must identify and control potential risks to reduce the chance of harm. Staff training on procedures and protocols is beneficial. Wurkplace Health and Safety consultants can provide personalized risk assessments and training courses to protect charity workers/volunteers.
- Manual Handling – Charity shops receive many deliveries and donations daily, resulting in injuries from lifting and moving. Staff and volunteers must learn safe lifting and moving techniques to prevent legal claims against the charity. Our personalized manual handling training ensures safety while working.
- Prevent Falls and Trips in the Charity Sector with Our Training Course! Our course can be tailored to meet the unique needs of your employees and volunteers, ensuring they stay safe in any environment. Falls and slips are common occurrences in charity work due to the variety of environments staff work in. In charity shops, it's easy to trip over merchandise, and when fundraising outdoors, there are often reports of people slipping on wet floors.
