Hi everyone.

My name is Billy and I am in the very early stages of setting up my health and safety consultancy SG Safety Group LTD. I am also a qualified Arborist but unfortunately injury has forced a new career path. I am after some thoughts from you guys on how useful my new business venture would be to the arb industry. I know through experience that if you want to register with CHAS or SAFEcontractor they make you jump through many hoops so I could help with this and also compliance with the law. It's only going to get worse for red tape. My plan is to offer services that include:

LOLER inspections

Bespoke health and safety policies

Responsible person status on a retainer

Safety audits and inspections

COSHH assessments

Risk assessments

Method statements

Fire risk assessments

Certified Manual handling training

Certified First aid training

Certified COSHH training

plus a few other things.

I know that a lot of you trade as sole traders and some of these services won't be of any use to you but any thoughts on what will work or what I might be wasting my time with would be great.

The Arb industry isn't the only industry I service but with my background it is something I want to explore.

All the training can be done at your premises or home.

Anyway let me know your thoughts and please be gentle.

Would love to but injury means I can't climb so this is the next best thing. Hope I can help people cos it can be a bit of a mine field
