About Oxyl8

Achieving excellence in health and safety is not rocket science, nor does it necessarily require a heavy investment in resources, time, money etc. In fact the secret to success is in our minds.

Consider this... The Health and Safety Executive's research has shown that 85% of all accidents and incidents are caused primarily by 'unsafe acts' with only 15% being caused by 'unsafe conditions'. The fundamentals are beautifully simple... people cause accidents, not things.

It is an absolute certainty that the prevailing health and safety culture within your organisation will be the critical factor in determining your company's health and safety success.

HSE's statistics show that inappropriate behaviour causes most incidents and we know that to modify behaviour we need to change attitude... which brings us back to culture.

The potential benefits from a programme which focuses on cultural change are therefore quite evident, but perhaps what is often less easily understood – and therefore a potential obstacle in setting out a programme for change - are the practical elements involved in the process.

Oxyl8 consultants will advise and guide you through those aspects of the cultural change process. This is an area where an external influence can often be used to greatest effect.

At Oxyl8 we believe our health and safety management, auditing / monitoring, training and technical services offer our clients exceptional support in those essential elements.
