Health & Safety and Risk Management

Business Continuity Planning

In the event of a major loss, businesses that are unprepared seldom recover to their pre-loss trading position. Too often, delays and difficulties in sourcing alternative premises, plant or stock gives competitors the chance to lure away hard won customers, who almost never return. Un-fulfilled contracts can also cause a terminal loss of reputation.

Towergate Commercial Underwriting provides an on-line planning toolthat helps devise tactics to enable businesses to survive disaster, continue operations, recover market position and cement and secure contracts with key customers. It is a straightforward step-by-step process that records data specific to the business operation and produces a bespoke report that can be reviewed and amended as necessary.

Safety Learning is a web-based, health and safety training system that enables both large and small companies to fulfil their safety training requirements online with greater ease.

This diverse system can be accessed securely by chosen employees as well as the administrator who has full control over the running of their account online.

A training session and assessment can be undertaken in a number of different modules. Each training session takes between 15-20 minutes.

The subjects are divided up into 6 or 7 interactive sections, which include information, click & drag interactivity and questions. Questions will relate to the information in the section to ensure that the users have understood the relevant information.

At the end of the training session there is a checklist and a multiple choice self test. The answers to these questions are recorded and at the end of the test, there is an option to print out a certificate of training which also includes the test result.
