DE Ford Risk Managers are on the Occupational Safety and Health Consultants Register (OSHCR)

The Government accepted the recommendation outlined in the report, ‘Common Sense, Common Safety’ to professionalise health and safety consultants. The report recommended a qualification requirement that all consultants should be accredited to professional bodies and a web-based directory of accredited consultants should be established.

The qualification standard has been set at a degree level qualification, at least two years experience and active engagement in a continuing professional development scheme.  All consultants who join the register are bound by their professional body/ bodies’ code of conduct and are committed to providing sensible and proportionate advice.

Each of our Risk managers (Clive Taylor, Leigh Adamson, Gordon Linford & Gavin Leatherbarrow) are on the register of consultants.
