Help Support Talk Electrician Forum:
They should send you a sample from what I have heard from the other guys on here?
Else I'm sure there is one in t ehdownloads.
I also guess you are sole trader / 1 person Ltd. Co.?
Thus HSE requirements are also minimal, so theirs should also be.
There is a sample H&S policy on the HSE website for SME's

there is no requirement for a H&S policy unless you employ more than 5 people. all you will be expected to have in place is risk assessments
Andy,
There is no requirement from HSE for written RA's unless you employ more than 5 people either.
I don't know what the ELECSA requirements are they may be more onerous than the statutory as the NIC ones are, which do require a written H&S policy regardless of how many you employ!

Asking for risk assessment, h and s policy, complaints procedure and a few othe bits
I have been told to just fill out the example that they send you, and have just copied the risk assessments and put company name at top and filled out a few for jobs i have done. Then make up a complaints policy about your procedure for what action you will take along with a register of complaints which will be empty, hopefully! My assessment is tomorrow morning, will let you know how i get on.
They ask me for a H&S policy each year . If you PM your email address to me, I can send a copy of the one I present to ELECSA , you'll have to reprint it and substitute your name .
Complaints book is just a record of complaints and how they were dealt with , I never fill anything in mine , its all ballcocks but we have to smile and put up with it.

Well i passed! He was really happy with all my paperwork, which i had put into a folder. Think he appreciated that i was organised, which made his job easier. Wasnt half as bad as i thought it would be, and he was a real sound guy. You will be fine as long as you can show you know what your talking about, He's not there to catch you out.

what jobs did you show him?
Consumer unit change and central heating rewire. I did them both in my house as it was my first one and haven't really done any other jobs cos most of my work is contracting at the moment. Gonna get my van stickered up and push my own work.
