"I have contracted Better Safety to act as a competent person for my company in the UK since February 2018. Out of the many conversations I had with different vendors in the selection process, Carl stood out as having a deep knowledge of Health and Safety practice, with a rational balance to his viewpoints. Happily, this has proven to be the case in reality as well. Carl's advice allows me to navigate through the web of health and safety requirements to ensure my business can operate with compliance and most importantly keep our staff's health and safety as a top priority. I plan on maintaining Carl's service for the foreseeable future."
