EEF, the manufacturers' organisation, has launched a new online tool to help Company Directors manage health & safety effectively with the minimum of fuss. The tool has been backed by the Health & Safety Executive (HSE).

The scorecard, sponsored by Travelers, a leading property and liability insurer, has been developed in response to increasing survey evidence from company Boards of the need for pragmatic help in setting and monitoring key performance indicators across their business.

The scorecard identifies a mix of measures that reflect a company's performance in the past, and how prepared it is to manage risks and comply with legislation in the future. Straightforward traffic light reporting then enables directors to focus their attention where it is most needed across their business.

The scorecard, which is aimed at all organisations not just manufacturing companies, includes step-by-step guidance, worked examples and benchmark statistics as well as a pro forma report that businesses can download and use.

The tool is free to access online at: www.eef.org.uk/scorecard
