It is a legal requirement that all organisations with five or more workers must have written arrangements in place for the planning, organisation, control, monitoring and review of their health and safety measures. This is set out in your health and safety policy document, but as part of this you must have specific documentation in place (and kept up to date) to ensure that staff are informed on all relevant safety information.
