health & safety
Employers in both the public and private sector must adhere to
an ever-expanding framework of health and safety legislation to
ensure the safety of their employees and others who might be
affected by their activities. Browne Jacobson’s health and safety
team provides clients with legal guidance in ensuring compliance
with these regulations, and support if problems do arise.
Health and safety regulations have a huge effect on how
organisations operate and Browne Jacobson’s team includes
specialist lawyers with industry knowledge, to provide focussed,
tailored services. In all cases, the team takes a proactive
approach and looks to identify and solve potential problems through
comprehensive risk management services and policy drafting.
If clients are faced with enforcement action the team provides a
quick response service and full legal support. Where possible,
lawyers will enter into negotiations to resolve issues before court
proceedings are issued, but if the matter does come to court,
experienced advocates are available to prepare and present the case
in both the civil and criminal courts.
