Lockton Health and Safety Guide
Consequently the health and safety arrangements set out within this document and specific office risk assessments effectively mitigate any risks to which young persons are exposed. In the event of children being present in a Lockton office and where they are not directly supervised by their guardian (e.g. parent or teacher) then a specific risk assessment needs to be carried out. Also; in the event of a young person or child undertaking an activity that is outside the scope of normal office operations then specific risk assessments may be required. Examples of where this might be appropriate include visits to industrial premises / construction sites or participation in charitable events. If attending through work experience or other training it is likely there will be a Risk Assessment form to complete for the edecatiuonal institute looking after the young person. These should be completed and a copy retained for file. If no assessment form is provided by the young persons sponsor then contact faciltieis for a form to use. HSP 15 Lone Working There may be circumstances when an Associate is present in an office alone (e.g. early in the morning or in the evening). The nature of the office based activities undertaken mean that this will not normally create significantly elevated risks to the associate. However, should any of the following circumstances apply – lone working is not permitted: Associates are not permitted to work alone if they suffer a significant health concern where the need for medical intervention is considered likely (based on disclosed health information or previous incidents).
