Consultation – it’s meant to be 2-way When I tell Clients at the beginning that there’s a law saying they have to consult with their workforce the usual response is ‘Wait…What?!’ This is rapidly followed by some kind of fudge […]

Confetti Health and Safety

3rd January 2022 Kevin McCloskeyUncategorised

What do I mean by ‘Confetti Health and Safety (‘H&S’)? It seems to me that there are certain words and phrases that are just thrown about by people who have little experience of what they mean, or the real-world implications […]

How did expectations get so high?

10th November 2021 Kevin McCloskeyUncategorised

I’ve recently been looking at battery-operated vacuum cleaners (nothing to do with my work, but we’ll get there). Anyone who has done the same thing will have seen the myriad of reviewing sites and articles that are available online. They […]

Recent experience has taught us all that if you say, ‘don’t panic’, people will automatically assume that there must be something to worry about. So off they trot to join the queue for petrol, diesel or toilet paper. This also […]

One Size Doesn’t Fit All Anymore

9th August 2021 Kevin McCloskeyUncategorised

Employers and their HR people have been tested to the limit with all the recent challenges, in particular the ‘COVID’ pandemic. So during times like these, ‘Health and Safety’ (‘H&S’) can seem like the least of anyone’s concerns – unless […]

R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

27th June 2021 Kevin McCloskeyUncategorised

Health and Safety basic law doesn’t change very much – which is why I prefer to blog about the barriers to progress in health and safety as being more about the way people interact with each other. Get H&S Done […]

Needle, thread and button image

This old saying was around in my parents’ days and so I heard it when growing up. In the days where mending your own clothes was more widespread it made sense to start on a repair early, because if you […]

‘Are you sure you know what you’re doing?’

25th April 2021 Kevin McCloskeyUncategorised

A lot of organisations have been encouraged by the HSE’s keep-it-simple approach over the years to put together their own so-called Health and Safety ‘Arrangements’ Normally, I like to review pre-existing documents when enquiries comes in. They tell me a […]

Health and Safety is a bit of a scream sometimes…

3rd March 2021 Kevin McCloskeyUncategorised

    For us the prospect of completing Risk Assessments and Method Statements was a worry, but after working with Kevin it all made sense! He took the time to explain simply with no jargon and he is always at the end of an email/phone. Fully recommend Just Health and Safety without any hesitation.

    We hired Kevin to help our business out with some fine tuning of existing health and safety policies we have in place and also with implementing new processes. Kevin has been fantastic throughout and really gone above and beyond to help us - we can't thank him enough for his support.
