Plan UK (London based charity): Auditing and training. "Maxwell Safety provided an excellent service and I believe the work was conducted in a thorough and efficient manner.  At our preliminary meeting I felt the consultant's communication was clear and that he quickly understood our specific requirements.  Subsequently, when he came in to conduct a full assessment he was courteous, avoided jargon and asked pertinent questions.  On receiving the completed health and safety status review I was impressed by the clear and logical layout which made a lengthy document easy to read and use on an ongoing basis.  I feel confident that a full audit was undertaken and that all aspects were covered.  The recommendations were clear and reasonable. In particular I valued the proposed action plan which indicates priorities and associated levels of risk." Angela Beerman, HR Manager
