Health and Safety Intern Review

My role is the Operational and Legal Risk Management, on a day to day basis I review our health and safety policies. I send these policies out to all required people for feedback and then upload these policies onto our documentation system. I also review / update our legal register by carrying out a full evaluation of compliance on each individual piece of legislation. This is in conjunction with administrative activities.

I now have a basic understanding of how to use excel. I have improved my legal research skills, my public speaking skills, my confidence has grown significantly and I now have an understanding of how a business is run.

I have been given a lot of responsibility, I often have meeting with our CEO and CFO, some of the time presenting to them. I am trusted to carry out my duties alone and I am trusted to work where I want / need to on the day e.g., home or in one of our two offices.

I have loads of support and guidance - my manager prioritises my needs and offers help whenever I need it. We also have weekly team calls where we discuss what we have achieved and if we need any help from each other with anything.

The company prioritises well being / work life balance. Everyone here is very welcoming and happy to help and I have yet to have a bad experience working here. There are always fun events, challenges and prize draws going ahead.

I have really enjoyed my placement, it is a shame they have to end. I have made so many friends, made so many memories, experienced so many things and learn so much.

Research the company before having an interview - it is important to know who BSH are and what they do for any job that will be carried out there. You have to want to make an impact and put 100% into the work you are carrying out. The standards of work here are high and by giving 100%, you are getting 100% back.
