HASCOM NETWORK LTD is a health and safety consultancy founded in 1991 under the Chairmanship of the late Allan St John Holt, who was one of the leading and most authoritative figures on health and safety matters in the United Kingdom
The company, which has offices near Southampton, has developed its successful core services by providing crucial, high grade health and safety information whenever and wherever it is most needed. That is at the heart of the operation but, in addition, Hascom Network Limited provides a full range of consultancy services in occupational health and safety covering training, workplace inspections, expert opinions and advice, accident investigation, auditing and assessment and external competent person appointment
Helping people and organisations to comply with the law and demonstrate their competence are fundamental to HASCOMs role. Practical assistance is furnished in many ways. HASCOM helps create safety policies, writes safety manuals and takes the pain out of preparing risk assessments. Assisting clients to understand and react to the implications of new health and safety legislation and suggesting cost-effective solutions is an important part of the programme. The Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations 1999 and the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations of 1994 both illustrate the need for sound and timely support.
Through its Adviceline, which reflects the companys informationbased philosophy, Hascom is linked to thousands of businesses throughout the UK, providing immediate access to the help they need on health and safety matters of concern. The Adviceline operates from the companys Information Centre in Hampshire and is staffed by fulltime, friendly professional advisors, all qualified to the UKs highest standard.
HASCOM is big enough to help organisations of all sizes and complexities, and small enough to care about each of its clients.
