Competent support built into your business
Ongoing competent health and safety assistance for organisations that need access to professional advice without employing a full-time specialist.
Competent Person Services
LRMS can provide ongoing competent health and safety assistance to organisations that need access to professional advice without employing a full-time health and safety specialist. Support is tailored to your organisation and can include advice, policy and procedure development, risk-management support, audits, incident advice, management meetings, action tracking and ongoing review. Ultimate employer and management duties remain with the relevant duty holders — LRMS provides competent professional assistance, not a transfer of legal responsibility.
