Ian Johnson has advised us on health and safety matters for the past three years, and we consider ‘Johnson Health & Safety’ to be an important asset to all three companies within our organisation. We now have a workable health and safety management system that is strictly and methodically vetted and updated by Ian during his monthly visits to our companies. I would recommend Ian Johnson to anyone looking for a professional health and safety consultant to assist them in meeting the legalities of health and safety.

RevCo Interiors

Since starting RevCo Interiors as a business in 2014, we have worked with Ian at Johnson Health & Safety, and whom we have found to be invaluable for both health and safety advice and documentation. As a contractor, we use other sub-contractors rather than direct employees. Ian has given us advice and documentation for almost everything, making sure we meet current legal health and safety standards. Working together, Ian has major input assisting us to write all our policies, method statements and risk assessments. We find Ian’s knowledge and service invaluable, and would always recommend him to other businesses.

Running a small but extremely busy business, I thought I understood the importance of health and safety and the key issues involved, having researched this topic previously. As our business grew, I recognised we required a more detailed system and started searching for a suitable company to assist me and my business. Many offered, were online and appeared very time consuming and complicated. Having met with Ian for an initial consultation, it soon became clear that Ian was very experienced, had all the necessary qualifications, was up-to-date with all current health and safety rules and regulations and almost immediately understood the nature of our business and our needs. Since we commenced our agreement some 3 years ago, we now have a very comprehensive system, all risk and COSHH assessments, procedures were soon in place, our staff are trained on all relevant aspects and my knowledge and understanding has increased immensely, but at the same time I have managed to continue running my business without being bogged down with endless paperwork, which I almost certainly would have been with other consultants and online systems. Ian has been very flexible in terms of our appointments, our requirements and the time needed to complete all tasks and he is always available on the end of the telephone should I require any advice in between his visits. We have an ongoing gentleman's agreement and are not tied contractually which suits both parties. I could not recommend Ian highly enough.
