Health and Safety in Hospitality

The hospitality industry is one of the largest industries in the United Kingdom, employing around 8% of the national workforce and contributing £60 – £70 billion to the UK economy every year.

However, around 1 in 15 workplace injuries take place in this sector, which is in large part due to the establishment types and the many risks that they present – from slips & trips to kitchen fires, for example.

Each hospitality establishment faces unique health and safety challenges, therefore compliance specialists are required in order to provide solutions that are perfectly suited to each individual business.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Who regulates health and safety in the hospitality sector?

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) holds sole authority for the enforcement, investigation and prosecution of occupational health & safety, including in hospitality.

Alongside enforcing the law, the HSE provides additional resources for hospitality establishments to improve overall safety in their premises: https://www.hse.gov.uk/catering/index.htm

In the food & beverage sub-sector especially, due to the variety of risks and hazards that are present in settings such as commercial kitchens, hotels, restaurants, cafes, pubs etc., the prevalence of accidents is high – as well as the variety in the types of accidents.

Because of this, the HSE especially stress the importance of risk assessing and employee health & safety training – both which play a crucial part in reducing accidents and creating safer workplaces.

What is occupational health and safety (OHS) software?

Occupational Health & Safety software (which is simply known as health and safety software) assists in the efficient management of safety compliance by making manual processes digital and centrally accessible.

Hospitality health and safety software provides a central platform for monitoring all your establishment’s health & safety metrics, alongside the following capabilities and others:

  • Flagging & logging compliance issues

  • Risk assessment/audits

  • Employee training

  • Recording incidents/accidents

Some OHS software systems will have more functions that others, however the purpose is to adopt a system which provides services that are suitable for your industry and add value to your health & safety processes

What are the benefits of implementing a health and safety software system in my hospitality establishment?

Many injuries in the hospitality sector are reported every year to the HSE. It is important to effectively manage your health and safety to prevents injury and ill health to your employees.

Implementing a health & safety software system like Smartlog® will eliminate the use of existing paper-based processes, saving time and costs in the process. A digital system makes the management process easier and more streamlined by vastly reducing admin tasks.

In hospitality, employers are obliged to provide good management, supervision and effective training – such as fire safety, manual handling and food hygiene for example.

So if your OHS health and safety software system hosts eLearning courses or functions as a Learning Management System (LMS), the employee training benefits are massive both in terms of cost and for convenience.
