Protect your workplace with a robust Fire Risk Assessment that covers all bases and keeps your company compliant and your employees safe.
A Fire Risk Assessment is a statutory requirement under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order (2005), and includes most commercial and public premises in the UK.
If you own a business you will be required to manage fire safety and, therefore, complete a Fire Risk Assessment, usually annually. You may have a competent person assigned to this task within your workplace, whose obligation it is to ensure General Fire Precautions are comprehensively monitored and adhered to.
Whilst there is no stipulation for official qualifications to fulfil these obligations, we understand that fire safety is a complex topic and something many businesses would prefer to have professionals handle.
Rhino Safety are experts in the field of health and safety. As well as Fire Risk Assessment services, we offer tailored solutions for every area of your workplace health and safety, including audits, method statements and accident investigation.
All of our services can be engaged on an individual, ad-hoc basis, or alternatively can be provided as a comprehensive package bespoke to your requirements. Regardless of how simple or complex your Fire Risk Assessment needs are, our experienced and knowledgeable consultants are available to offer Fire Safety Risk Assessments, reviews, guidance and recommendations to help your organisation achieve its fire safety goals.
We’ll also manage and maintain your documentation and organise regular evaluations to keep everything up to date.
Whether you have a single property or multiple properties, we have the knowledge and experience to handle any size, structure, or requirement your site may have.

We are here to take the guesswork and confusion out of Fire Safety to help you be best placed to ensure the highest level of safety and compliance in your workplace, and for your employees.
Fire safety is an ongoing requirement. While there is no legislated frequency for conducting these assessments, they should ideally be conducted on an annual basis, or more frequently if there has been a significant change in the environment.
Adhering to this timeline ensures an easy demonstration of compliance in the case of a visit from HSE, and also ensures early identification of any potential risks in order for them to be addressed and rectified to prevent an unsafe environment.
Our Fire Risk Assessment services result in a comprehensive document that provides you with:

What is Emergency First Aid? Well it’s exactly that, the first aid to be offered if an incident occurs.

This Emergency aid course will highlight some of the most common situations that you might come across and the actions that you can take to help.
In the most serious situations a first aider’s role will be to assess the scene so that accurate information can be passed to Emergency services and then to act appropriately to try and increase the patients odds of survival.

Working safely is in the interest and concern of all staff – both the employers and employees. Although most of the legal duties fall to the employer, Health and Safety law is one of the few pieces of legislation that places duties on the employee as well. There are three reasons for managing risk at work that bring benefit for all concerned – moral; not causing harm to work colleagues, legislative; the law requires it! – And finally financial; all accidents bear a cost to both parties.
Workers have an expectation to go home at the end of the working day not having been injured by any workplace activity. Most workers feel that accidents are something that only happens to other people. The reality is that too many workers are coming to harm by not observing Health and Safety laws and not working to safe systems of work. That’s where our working safely course can help.
The course covers why we should work safely, defines hazard and risk, identifying common hazards, improving safety performance and protecting the environment. Training is a big part of changing attitudes towards taking risks in the workplace and can make a real difference.

This course covers what you need to know about the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH). It’s aimed at anyone who is exposed to Substances Hazardous to Health at work, as well as line managers with responsibility for such people. So what do we mean by ‘Substances Hazardous to Health’?
In legal terms, these are substances that are classified as “very toxic, toxic, harmful, corrosive or Irritant” under the Classification, Labelling and Packaging Regulation (CLP). This was a new regulation that came into force in January 2009 dovetailing with a set of regulations called REACH. REACH is a European Union regulation concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals, which came into force on 1st June 2007. One of the main aims of REACH is to provide a high level of protection for human health and the environment from the use of chemicals.

This course is aimed at anyone who uses abrasive wheels, or employs people who use abrasive wheels as part of their work.
There are a wide range of tools and processes that use abrasive wheels and ensuring these are used correctly and safely is of paramount importance.

Asbestos is probably the most dangerous building material ever used. Every year thousands of people fall ill and die because of exposure to asbestos and it was widely used by the construction industry right up until the year 2000.
The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 apply to employers, employees, self employed persons and duty holders and cover all work with asbestos containing materials. Regulation 10 of CAR states that every employer must ensure that adequate information, instruction and training is given to employees who are liable to be exposed to asbestos.

This course is aimed at anyone who undertakes work at height, or who employs people who regularly work at height.
The term work at height applies to a wide range of situations ranging from the obvious ones like working on platforms, ladders, scaffolds or stages to working alongside deep trenches. This is because the crucial thing to understand about work at height is that it’s not how far you climb, but how far you can fall. ‘Falls’ doesn’t just mean people falling from heights. If materials or equipment fall, that will obviously present an equally dangerous hazard to anyone below.
All working at height situations are covered by health and safety legislation. Chief among these is the Work at Height Regulations 2005. These regulations confer legal duties on employers and employees to assess, control and minimise risks and hazards from work at height.
This course covers topics including the dangers of working at height, the regulations, the hierarchy of controls, assessing risk and much more.

Working safely is in the interest and concern of all staff – both the employers and employees. Although most of the legal duties fall to the employer, Health and Safety law is one of the few pieces of legislation that places duties on the employee as well. There are three reasons for managing risk at work that bring benefit for all concerned – moral; not causing harm to work colleagues, legislative; the law requires it! – And finally financial; all accidents bear a cost to both parties.
Workers have an expectation to go home at the end of the working day not having been injured by any workplace activity. Most workers feel that accidents are something that only happens to other people. The reality is that too many workers are coming to harm by not observing Health and Safety laws and not working to safe systems of work. That’s where our working safely course can help.
The course covers why we should work safely, defines hazard and risk, identifying common hazards, improving safety performance and protecting the environment. Training is a big part of changing attitudes towards taking risks in the workplace and can make a real difference.
