The One Piece of Business Insurance You Might Be Missing
You have public liability and professional indemnity insurance. But what about your Health & Safety? For just £250 a year, our Small Business Safety Net provides the essential H&S coverage and peace of mind every business owner needs.
See How It Works"Am I Doing Enough for Health & Safety?"
If you're a small business owner, that question probably keeps you up at night. You're juggling everything—clients, finances, marketing, and the day-to-day operations. Health & Safety feels like another mountain to climb, filled with confusing jargon, endless paperwork, and the constant worry of an unexpected inspection or, worse, an accident.
It's a heavy burden to carry alone. The law requires every business to have access to competent Health & Safety advice. But hiring a full-time manager isn't feasible. So, you do your best with templates you find online, hoping you've covered all the bases, all while that nagging feeling of uncertainty remains.
Why Your Business Can't Afford to Ignore H&S
Proper Health & Safety isn't just about rules and regulations. It's a fundamental pillar of a successful, resilient business. Getting it wrong can have serious consequences.
Protect Your Finances
Fines from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) can be crippling for a small business, often running into thousands of pounds. Add the costs of legal fees, increased insurance premiums, and operational downtime, and a single incident can put your entire business at risk.
Protect Your Reputation
Your reputation is your most valuable asset. A workplace accident or a failed inspection can cause irreparable damage, losing the trust of your customers, your employees, and your community. A strong safety record, on the other hand, is a powerful mark of professionalism.
Win More Business
More and more, larger clients and public sector contracts require proof of competent H&S management, such as CHAS or SafeContractor accreditation. Our service helps you meet these requirements, opening doors to bigger and better opportunities that your competitors might miss.

Answering Your Questions
What does it mean to have a 'named H&S consultancy'?
The law (specifically, the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999) requires every employer to appoint one or more 'competent persons' to help them meet their legal health and safety obligations. Our Safety Net plan allows you to formally name AcreditSafe as that competent source of advice, satisfying this key legal requirement instantly.
How does this help me win bigger contracts?
Many larger organisations and public bodies will not even consider a supplier who cannot demonstrate robust H&S management. Having a professional consultancy named on your documents and a membership certificate is often a minimum requirement for tender applications and accreditations like CHAS, which are gateways to more lucrative work.
What happens if I have an incident at work?
As a Safety Net member, you can call us immediately for advice. While we are not your legal representative, we can guide you on the correct procedures to follow, what to report, and how to conduct an internal investigation to prevent it from happening again. This immediate access to expert advice can be invaluable in a stressful situation.
Is this plan enough for my business?
This plan provides the essential foundation of competent advice that every business needs. It gives you the certificate and the access to experts to prove you're taking safety seriously. While you are still responsible for the day-to-day safety in your workplace, this plan ensures you're never alone and always have professional guidance to fall back on. If you need more hands-on help, your 20% discount makes further support highly affordable.
