We're Not Here to Ruin Your Day!

Health & Safety sometimes gets a reputation for being the "fun police", turning up with a clipboard and telling everyone what they can't do.

But that's not how we work at Prohas Group.

Good health & safety isn't about saying NO to everything. It's about understanding how your business operates, identifying the risks and finding practical ways to get the job done safely.

Less "you can't do that" and more "here's how we can do it safely."

Practical. Approachable. Straight-talking. And here when you need us.

Can eLearning Really Improve Workplace Safety?

Keeping employees up to date with their health & safety training doesn't always mean taking a full day away from work.

eLearning offers a flexible, practical way to develop knowledge, refresh understanding and keep training records up to date.

Not every subject can be covered online alone, but the right eLearning courses can play an important role in workplace safety.

It's not just about completing a course, it's about understanding how to work safely.

🔥 FIRE SAFETY FRIDAY

Changed Your Workplace Layout? Does Your FRA Need Reviewing? 🚪

Moved some furniture? Created a new office? Changed how a room is used?

These might seem like small changes, but they could affect your workplace fire safety.

Changes to your layout can impact escape routes, fire precautions and how people evacuate in an emergency.

Your Fire Risk Assessment should reflect your workplace as it is today, not how it looked when the assessment was first completed.

🔥 Take a walk around your premises today. Does your current Fire Risk Assessment still reflect the layout and how the building is being used?

👉 Not sure if your FRA needs reviewing? Book a Fire Risk Assessment with Prohas Group.

HR LEGAL UPDATE: New sexual harassment requirements take effect on 30 October 2026. Is your business ready?

If you run an SME, this is an important employment law change you need to be aware of.

From 30 October 2026, the Employment Rights Act 2025 strengthens employers' duty to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace.

Here's what's changing:

1. From “reasonable steps” to “all reasonable steps”

This means employers need to consider what more they can reasonably do to prevent harassment, taking into account their organisation, working environment and specific risks.

2. Greater responsibility for third-party harassment

The new legislation also introduces a duty relating to harassment by third parties, including customers, clients, contractors and members of the public.

So, what should SMEs be doing?

· Review and update your sexual harassment and bullying policies.

· Carry out a risk assessment to identify where harassment could occur.

· Provide appropriate training for employees and managers.

· Make sure employees have clear, accessible ways to report concerns.

· Consider risks from customers, clients, work-related events and online interactions.

· Keep records of the steps taken, review their effectiveness and address any gaps.

Having a policy in place is no longer enough on its own. Employers need to demonstrate that they are taking practical, preventative action and building a workplace culture where inappropriate behaviour is not ignored or tolerated.

For smaller businesses without an in-house HR team, knowing where to start can feel overwhelming. But you don't need a large HR department to take meaningful steps towards compliance.

At Prohas Group, we support SMEs with HR policy reviews, workplace risk assessments and practical guidance to help businesses understand their responsibilities and protect their people.

Not sure whether your business is ready for the changes? Get in touch to discuss your HR requirements.

🔥 FIRE SAFETY FRIDAY

The Fire Door Being Held Open With a Wedge 🚪

We've all seen it. A fire door propped open with a wedge, a bin or whatever happens to be nearby.

"It's only for a few minutes."

But a few minutes turns into a few hours, and before long, nobody even notices it's being left open.

Fire doors are there for a reason. They're designed to help prevent the spread of fire and smoke, protecting escape routes and giving people valuable time to evacuate.

When a fire door is wedged open without an appropriate hold-open system, it may not be able to do its job when it matters most.

🔥 Take a look around your workplace today. Are your fire doors being kept closed where they should be?

It Was Written in the RAMS... But Nobody Was Doing It

You've got the Risk Assessments and Method Statements (RAMS) in place. Everything looks good on paper. But is that what's actually happening on site?

It's something we see more often than you might think.

The RAMS say one thing, but the work is being carried out differently. Maybe a control measure has been overlooked, a shortcut has become normal practice, or the team hasn't properly understood what's expected.

Having RAMS in place doesn't automatically mean the risks are being managed.

They need to reflect the work being carried out, be communicated to those doing the job, and most importantly, be followed.

👉 When was the last time you checked that what's written in your RAMS matches what's actually happening on site?

🔥 FIRE SAFETY FRIDAY

Does a Fire Risk Assessment Have an Expiry Date? 👀

It's a question we hear quite often. You've had your Fire Risk Assessment completed, so how long is it valid for?

The answer? There's no fixed expiry date.

However, that doesn't mean you can have one completed and forget about it.

Fire Risk Assessments need to be kept under review and updated when necessary, particularly if something changes within your workplace.

🏢 Have you changed the layout of your premises?
👥 Has your workforce grown?
🔧 Have you introduced new equipment or processes?
🚪 Have your escape routes or fire safety arrangements changed?

Your Fire Risk Assessment should reflect your workplace as it is today, not how it looked several years ago.

🔥 When was your Fire Risk Assessment last reviewed?
