I'm pretty certain that ROSPA did something on this recently which included the IoD but can't remember the details. Might be worth looking into

Noting that every single day a business opens yet it cannot guarantee that a spending customer will come along e.g. the ultimate risk assessment, I agree that its what business and personal benefits that are around that interest directors most so we should use this angle to sell H&S towards such people

Many directors see the odds of them personally getting caught as being very low and the cost of compliance is high

It can easily be displayed that it is cheaper & of low risk to manage improperly in some areas so the risk is run, as if there is a fine it will usually be less than the cost would have been to adequately manage in the first place hence profit is still made - wrong but there you are!

Personal & business benefits are the best tools to use as once directors see benefits in one area they become more open to see benefits in others and we can then move on
