What is a health &
safety statement?

A health and safety statement is a document that shows a company’s promise to keep the workplace safe for everyone. It explains how the company will find and manage risks, follow safety rules, and make sure employees know their part in staying safe. This statement helps show that the business is serious about protecting its workers, customers, and visitors from harm.
