This program provides guidance and safety standards to help small business owners maintain a safe working environment for themselves and their employees.
Who it's for
This scheme is specifically designed for small business owners. It is intended to support those running small-scale operations who need to ensure their workplace meets necessary safety requirements.

What it costs you
Accessing these safety standards and prevention resources is free. There are no fees required to review the guidance or learn about the safety protocols provided by the issuing body.
The catch to know
A common issue is that many people in specialized service roles, such as pet sitters, often ignore these safety guidelines because they may not view their work as a traditional industrial environment. However, following these standards is a vital way to help prevent accidents and protect yourself against potential liability claims that could arise from workplace injuries.
