COSHH Compliance

Guiding You Through the Steps to COSHH Compliance

From COSHH Risk Assessment to employee training, Synergy Occupational Hygiene can ease the journey to make COSHH compliance a smooth and seamless process. We come in from regulation 6 and can handle all aspects of the regulation, using our expertise in monitoring and implementing outcomes so your workers stay safe and your business is compliant. Here are the regulation numbers we can help you with.

The steps to COSHH compliance

COSHH Regulation 6:
Risk Assessment – Identify & Minimise Risks Before Work Begins

Before any work involving hazardous substances starts, employers must assess and minimise the risks. To this end, our COSHH Risk Assessment service helps you stay compliant by identifying hazardous substances, evaluating risks, and recommending effective control measures. Moreover, we ensure thorough documentation, ongoing reviews, and employee training, giving you peace of mind that your workplace remains safe and legally compliant.

COSHH Regulation 7:
Prevention & Control – Minimising Exposure at the Source

The best way to protect workers is to prevent exposure before it happens. Therefore, employers must prioritise safer alternatives, such as substituting materials or modifying processes. However, when prevention isn’t possible, effective control measures must be in place to keep exposure below Workplace Exposure Limits (WELs). Our Workplace Exposure Monitoring and Risk Assessments help you implement proactive strategies, ensuring full compliance with COSHH.

COSHH Regulation 8:
Control Measures – Keeping Workers Safe with the Right Protections

Effective control measures like Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV), PPE, and containment systems are essential for worker safety. To support this, Synergy provides:

  • LEV Installation & Commissioning – Ensuring proper ventilation and containment.
  • PPE Supplies & Face Fit Testing – Making sure protective gear fits and functions correctly.

With our expert solutions, you can be confident that you minimise exposure risks and meet safety standards efficiently.

COSHH Regulation 9:
Maintenance, Examination & Testing – Keeping Safety Systems in Top Shape

The regulations state that you must maintain and test control measures regularly to stay effective. Consequently, Synergy helps by providing:

  • LEV Servicing & Testing – Ensuring ventilation systems work efficiently.
  • LEV Spare Parts – Keeping your systems running smoothly.
  • Face Fit Testing & Respirator Air Testing – Ensuring PPE continues to provide full protection.

Regular maintenance not only ensures compliance but also helps address potential hazards before they become serious risks.

COSHH Regulation 10:
Monitoring Exposure – Stay Ahead of Workplace Hazards

Employers must continuously monitor workers’ exposure to hazardous substances to ensure levels remain safe. Therefore, Synergy offers Workplace Exposure Monitoring, comparing exposure levels to Workplace Exposure Limits (WELs). In addition we provide actionable recommendations to improve control measures and reduce risks.

Compliance with COSHH Regulation 11:
Health Surveillance – Protecting Long-Term Worker Health

Some hazardous substances can cause long-term health issues. Thus, regular medical check-ups help detect early signs of exposure-related conditions. To assist with this, Synergy offers:

  • Audiometry – Monitoring hearing risks from workplace noise.
  • Spirometry – Checking for respiratory issues.
  • Skin Health Assessments & Biological Monitoring – Detecting early signs of hazardous exposure.

Since early detection is key to keeping workers healthy, these proactive measures help prevent serious health issues.

COSHH Regulation 12:
Information, Instruction & Training – Empowering Workers with Knowledge

The regulations require that workers receive proper training to handle hazardous substances safely. Accordingly, Synergy helps businesses comply with COSHH by offering:

  • LEV Training – Teaching workers how to use ventilation systems effectively.
  • Information & Instruction Services – Keeping employees informed about substance risks and best practices.
  • Face Fit Testing & Respirator Air Testing Training – Ensuring workers use PPE correctly for maximum protection.

With the right knowledge and training, workers can confidently manage risks and stay safe on the job. This in turn leads to a safer and more efficient workplace.
