Explore employee softwareStart with the workplace you actually run
A small office, a busy shop and a workshop need different conversations about safety. Tell us about your Chester premises, the activities carried out, the people involved and any concerns you want to address. We agree the scope and delivery arrangements around that information.
Our base is 23 Newgate Street, Chester. We also support employers across Cheshire and North Wales. If you have several sites, explain where they are and which activities differ so we can plan the work appropriately.
From a safety review to a manageable action plan
- Workplace audits: review arrangements and identify the priorities for your premises and activities.
- Risk assessment support: work through the assessments and practical controls relevant to your operation.
- Policies and records: organise safety documents, training evidence and responsibilities.
- Follow-up: turn findings into actions with owners, deadlines and progress checks.
See our full health and safety support service to explore the wider offer. If you already have an audit, bring it to the first discussion so we can focus on outstanding work.
Useful information for your first conversation
Have your site addresses, a short description of the work and any existing audit or risk assessment to hand. Let us know about contractors, visitors, shift work or changes to equipment and premises where these are relevant. You do not need a perfect file before contacting us: the purpose of the discussion is to establish the starting point.
For example, a retailer may need help prioritising stockroom actions; a hospitality employer may want clearer responsibilities across shifts; a workshop may need to work through an existing audit. The agreed scope will reflect your own circumstances.
Keep safety actions connected
Our health and safety software can help bring documents, training records and follow-up into the EPL Hub. During a demonstration, show us how you currently record actions and who needs to see progress. We can discuss software alongside advice or as a separate requirement.
People, safety and return-to-work support
Some workplace questions also need HR or occupational health input. Explore HR support in Chester for people management, and our occupational health service for workplace assessments and return-to-work planning. We will discuss which service fits the question you need answered.
Practical work: Pryors Hayes Golf Club
Our published project account shows how EPL worked across a golf course, greenkeeping areas and clubhouse to turn an audit into risk assessments, COSHH documentation and a prioritised action plan. It also explains the implementation work still to follow. Read the Pryors Hayes case study to see the scope and recorded progress.

LET’S WORK THROUGH IT
Tell us what your workplace needs
Practical work at Pryors Hayes Golf Club. EPL prepared risk-assessment and COSHH documentation, draft safe systems of work and a prioritised action plan across the course, greenkeeping areas and clubhouse. The 10 September report records that progress; implementation and verification of remaining actions formed the next phase.
