New East Midlands Risk Assessment Business Offers Commercial Solutions for Employers

As we continue to adapt to this new way of life, the team at Russell Scanlan continues to research new services and offers that can offer added benefits to individuals and businesses as we all navigate the uncertain months ahead.

As the UK continues to move slowly out of lockdown, many businesses are now considering how they can ensure a safe return to work for their employees.

We’d like to share with you information on a new East Midlands based business that that specialises in Covid-19 related risk assessments and advice. Risk Assura works with small to medium sized businesses to re-assure and re-integrate staff into the workplace.

Although the team at Russell Scanlan is still working from home for the time being, we recognise that for many businesses, getting back to the office is a priority. With the new Government safety guidelines for safe working, we understand that organising a safe return for all of your staff may seem overwhelming.

A trusted client of ours, Risk Assura was founded by Rick Newman. With extensive experience in risk assessments across a variety of sectors, Risk Assura works with employers to offer practical and commercially viable solutions for a safe return to work.

Rick explains: “There is an expectation and responsibility for employers to undertake a workplace detailed risk assessment and Risk Assura can assist with practical and commercially sensible approach. Employers need to ensure that systems and processes are in place to ensure employees feel protected and re-assured, especially vulnerable employees. A risk assessment undertaken by an external and independent party will offer employees a greater level of reassurance and will assist employers by having an independent view. Risk Assura can work with either inhouse or external HR support to assist with effective employee communication if required.”

Risk Assura offers a variety of plans to suit your budget, including a flat-fee that for free initial consultation, site visit, risk assessment, follow up visit and debrief. Other packages include employee and employer resources and ongoing telephone support for 12 months.

Working with an expert ensures you are making the most costly and efficient decisions for your business. If you are interested in this service and would like to know more, call Rick Newman on 0115 871 6745 or email enquiries@riskassura.com.
