Did you know?
When employing or directing people in Leicester, confirming workplace safety is not optional. The law requires businesses to do what is "reasonably practicable" to protect employees, contractors, and visitors on site. Many safety risks go unrecognised without specialist knowledge, and that is where HSQE Consultancy makes the difference for Leicester businesses.
We offer a range of inspections and audits to make sure your workforce is working safely.
Snapshot Inspection
This fast-turnaround review gives Leicester businesses a clear picture of where things stand. Our consultants spend one to two hours on site, observing what is happening and recording anything that looks like a risk or a compliance issue. The written output gives Leicester businesses straightforward, actionable findings to work from.
Desktop Audit
Many Leicester businesses now operate management systems digitally. A desktop audit reviews those systems remotely, without requiring a site visit. This keeps Leicester workplaces running without interruption while still delivering a thorough compliance check.
Full Day Inspection
A full-day visit covers risk assessments and working procedures in detail, checking they are relevant to how the Leicester business actually operates. Consultants speak directly with team members to understand what is working well and where improvement is needed. Machinery is checked on site, and where ladder safety is relevant, certified inspectors carry out the required assessments.
Equipment Inspection
If Leicester businesses need specific equipment checked rather than a full audit, HSQE Consultancy can help with that too. The team carries out Portable Appliance Testing, commonly known as PAT Testing. Stepladders and leaning ladders used by your workforce can also be inspected, with replacement parts sourced where needed. Fire extinguishers on site can be inspected, serviced, and reviewed to keep Leicester businesses compliant. Bespoke packages are available to cover any combination of the above, and HSQE Consultancy can also put together ongoing service and maintenance schedules so Leicester businesses always stay one step ahead.
