What is the Health and Safety Review Tool
A guided review of workplace health and safety for all UNISON activists.
This tool can be used to create a report reviewing workplace health and safety (H&S) risk assessments. Use the tool to guide you through the 5-step process. Once you have completed all 5 steps a PDF report will be created and sent to your email address. This can then be used as supporting information in talks to improve the safety of the workplace.
This is designed to be used by: All branch activists
What are the benefits of using the H&S review tool?
Branch activists, especially safety, reps have an important role in examining employers’ risk assessments and deciding whether they are suitable and sufficient. This tool supports you in this process, guiding you through the steps necessary to check the written risk assessments and plans and make sure that all the risks have been covered. The report that this tool generates can support you to challenge the shortcoming of the workplace assessment and agree priorities for action with your employer.
Building a national picture of workplace health and safety.
As well as supporting you in your important role as a UNISON safety rep, this tool supports the union as a whole to build a picture of workplace health and safety, informing our work in this area across the nations.
