Health & Safety Suffolk HealthCare has a small but effective number of Health & Safety representatives throughout the county. The representatives inspect work areas right across Suffolk covering over 300 locations and where possible, work closely with employers in partnership working to help maintain safe area's, safety for staff and safe working practice. We also respond and welcome calls from members to inspect their own workplace. Health & Safety is also about all the different aspects of work, including Improving Working Lives, Risk Assessments, Working Time, Safety at Work, bullying, fire precautions and much more.
