Based on 51,302 inspections carried out over the last 10 years, a clear trend has emerged:
➡️ In workplaces where employers and managers have not received health and safety training, the number of breaches is significantly higher. This shows that a lack of knowledge directly affects the ability to ensure a safe working environment.
➡️ In small businesses, HMS training is less commonly implemented, which is why non-compliance is more frequently identified. Smaller businesses often lack clear processes, which increases the risk of errors and non-compliance.
➡️ When employers, middle managers and health and safety representatives have completed HMS training, other workplace indicators are also much more likely to meet the requirements. The training has a tangible impact on both safety and the working culture within the organisation.
