APPENDICES

Appendix of Meeting documents and reports

Councillor responsibilities in decision making

To note: https://www.hse.gov.uk/services/localgovernment/faq.htm

“The key thing, as with all health and safety, is to keep a sense of proportion – not to go over the top or take inadequate precautions.”

“councillors need to satisfy themselves that risks are considered as part of their decision-making process and are sensibly managed.”

“putting a service out to tender is not a mechanism for transferring all the health and safety risks and responsibilities to a contractor. The local authority as client must ensure that whoever carries out the work is able to do so in a way that controls health and safety risks and that they are not forcing conditions or systems upon your service provider that put workers or the public at unacceptable risk”

To note: https://www.hse.gov.uk/simple-health-safety/risk/index.htm

As an employer, you’re required by law to protect your employees, and others, from harm.

Under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, the minimum you must do is:

• identify what could cause injury or illness in your business (hazards)
• decide how likely it is that someone could be harmed and how seriously (the risk)
• take action to eliminate the hazard, or if this isn’t possible, control the risk
