Norfolk DSEAR Risk Assessment Services

Where dangerous substances are used, stored or handled in Norfolk workplaces, DSEAR may require those risks to be assessed properly and reduced so far as is reasonably practicable.

A practical assessment should look at real operating conditions, including substances, processes, hazardous areas, equipment and existing controls. The result is a clearer understanding of risk and a more useful basis for action.
