Our business is looking to expand and set up some additional offices throughout the UK. This has now led to our MD to ask for a H&S driven management procedure/document detailing the measures that should be in place for each office, this would include issues such as;

Fire Risk Assessment for the office

Fire Procedures (drills, routine check of alarm, emergencey lights, etc...)

First Aid measures.

General Office Risk Assessment

Details if the building contains any asbestos

Has anyone created a similar document to this and if so is there any guidance or a checklist that I can follow to ensure that I don't miss anything and that all issues are covered.

Thanks, any help would be much apprecaited

Control measures for Legionella

Testing / maintenance of gas appliances

Building electrical systems

Lifts inspections

How much detail do you want to go to?  There's things like workplace regs, numbers of toilets, washing facilities, drinking water, temperature, lighting, ventilation, arrangements for waste, and then when the people move in workstation assesments, PEEPs (but you may have rthem under fire arrangements).

Can you not just apply your current management system to the new offices? Which would surely cover everything you mentioned? DSE near top of list due to it being an office, electrical testing, PAT testing, any boiler servicing, legionella etc.
