This Hotel or Bed & Breakfast Health and Safety Policy & Procedures is specifically drawn for the hotel or bed and breakfast business. Health and safety law applies to all businesses, however small. Every employer has a legal responsibility to protect the health and safety of their staff and others - such as customers and members of the public - who may be affected by their work activities. This Hotel or Bed & Breakfast Health and Safety Policy & Procedures is a unique document that defines who does what, when and how they do it.

All employers must conduct a risk assessment; however, only employers employing five or more employees must have a written health and safety policy and have to record the significant findings of their risk assessment.

Employers employing less than five people are not legally required to have a written Health and Safety Policy and an official record of what the Risk Assessment finds. However, they still must conduct a Risk Assessment.
