Background
We partnered with a leading industrial waste and recycling organisation to provide interim Health & Safety leadership across their regional sites during a critical recruitment drive for permanent H&S roles.
Facing a tight permanent market and budget constraints, the client needed flexible, cost-effective, hands-on operational support to maintain compliance and keep their hazardous-materials operations running safely.
The Challenge
The client needed an experienced consultant to:
1. Deliver practical H&S support in a heavy-industry environment, ensuring compliance with legislation and internal standards.
2. Develop and implement robust protocols for handling hazardous materials, particularly lead, and provide site-wide training.
The Solution
We secured a Chartered Health & Safety consultant with deep expertise in metal recycling & hazardous-materials management. Achievements include:
Reviewed and enhanced PPE requirements
Rolled out additional safety initiatives and delivered targeted staff training
Maintained consistent Health and Safety oversight across multiple sites
The Results
Lead Handling Protocols: Reviewed and enhanced PPE requirements, hygiene controls, storage/movement/disposal procedures, and air-monitoring practices.
Gap Analysis & Improvements: Identified procedural gaps, rolled out additional safety initiatives, and delivered targeted staff training.
Continuity of Compliance: Maintained consistent H&S oversight across multiple sites until permanent hires were onboarded, ensuring no lapse in safety standards.
