I'm looking at Health & Safety in agriculture and the growing requirement to hold a H&S Policy statement. I'm studying towards a credited certificate although I have been involved in H&S in one way or another for the last 5 years and just need to certificate to support me.
I have seen what the main suppliers out there are supplying and i think they don't go far enough in support of maintaining a viable fit for purpose farm policy, a nice folder is presentationally nice but the policy itself needs maintenance to make it a working policy. My question is what would you out there ask for, would you want the bare bones policy where you do all the work, or when you have already purchased the main body an additional maintenance package would not be a significant addition but would be an all encompassing policy removing the burden from you the farmer.
Interested to here your views in general, very interested in the South West.

Simon
