Employers have a common law and statutory duty to their employees in respect of health and safety at work. We are consulted on a wide range of issues arising out of these duties, mainly by employers, but also by employees who have suffered damage as a result of a breach of health and safety duties.
The areas on which we can assist are as follows:
- drafting and advising on health and safety policies
- bringing or defending health and safety claims at the Employment Tribunal
- advising on health and safety representative obligations
- advising on employers' health and safety duties for employees working from home
- bringing and defending stress at work claims
- bringing and defending PI claims
- advising on directors' personal liability
