A private company that has two timber yards with a turnover of £100 million and 400 employees has an H&S and quality officer on both sites. It runs a forum for the H&S representatives every six weeks and has an ad hoc safety awareness meeting with the responsible director. It has attempted to move away from ‘tick box compliance’ and towards a change in culture to ‘integrate the function into the wider business picture’. It has a standard agenda to cover statutory issues, general H&S, environment, first aid and emergency issues. It raises specific issues before the meeting to ensure time for consultation with the workforce by the representative. Representatives provide direct feedback to the workforce after the meeting. A small amount of training is given. An H&S forum for wider worker involvement operates on an ad hoc basis when a particular issue needs more discussion. There is an H&S suggestion box and an H&S newsletter.
