What is a Safety Statement – And Who Needs One?
A Safety Statement is a legally required document under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005. It outlines how your business identifies, manages, and controls workplace risks.
Whether you’re:
• A sole trader with one employee.
• A growing team of 10.
• Or a company with 100+ staff across Ireland
…you’re legally obligated to have a site-specific, written Safety Statement that reflects your health and safety policies, identified hazards, and control measures.
At GTSS, we create custom Safety Statements to ensure you have a written safety management system that protects the safety, health, and well-being of your staff while ensuring legal compliance for your business.
