NOMINATED COMPETENT PERSON

Meet your legal duty under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 — with an expert team on tap.

WHAT IS A COMPETENT PERSON?

Under Regulation 7 of the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, every employer must appoint one or more ‘competent persons’ to help them meet their health and safety legal obligations.

When you appoint Apollo Safety as your Nominated Competent Person, you get a whole team of qualified consultants acting as your outsourced safety department — without the cost and commitment of hiring in-house.

REGULATION 7 — MHSWR 1999

“Every employer shall appoint one or more competent persons to assist them in undertaking the measures they need to take to comply with the requirements and prohibitions imposed by health and safety law.” We help you tick that box — and mean it.

WHO NEEDS ONE?

If you employ people, this applies to you. Here’s who benefits most from a Nominated Competent Person.

NO IN-HOUSE EXPERTISE

Businesses without a dedicated health and safety professional on the payroll.

SMES & GROWING FIRMS

Small and medium organisations scaling up who need compliance to keep pace.

TENDER-READY BUSINESSES

Firms needing to satisfy clients, insurers and tender requirements with confidence.

EVERY EMPLOYER

It’s a legal duty. If you employ even one person, the law expects you to have one.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER?

Once we’ve carried out your assessment, you will receive a written report with a clear action plan.

Unlimited Advisor Access

Pick up the phone or email our qualified advisors as often as you need — no clock-watching.
