The role of health and safety representatives is central to the overall safety and well-being of any organisation. Without active and effective health and safety representatives, an organisation’s safety measures and overall culture will lack structure, support and buy-in. This is because the health and safety representatives are the essential link between management and employees in all matters relating to health and safety – without this link working effectively, no organisation will be capable of maintaining continuous improvement in health and safety.
