Your partner
in compliance
Health and safety is too often about rules and regulations that restrict your business. Opus does things differently. With genuine customer relationships and compliance solutions that work for you.
We know the industry, inside and out
Opus is a new business built on decades of experience. Nineteen years ago, John Southall - our founder - left his environmental health officer role to create a new kind of health and safety consultancy.
Customer-Focused Integrity
Honest, commercially-aware and completely focused on customer relationships.
Proven Safety Expertise
Hundreds of safer clients later, John and his team bring the same no-nonsense know-how to Opus.
Simplified Compliance Approach
We're compliance experts who recognise you have a business to run and people to protect. So we're here to make it simple.
Answers. Action. Total assurance
We don't believe in safety for safety's sake. So you won't be locked into a long-term contract or upsold services you don't need.
You work with qualified safety managers and ex-enforcement officers to exceed your legal requirements and make compliance a core part of your culture.

How our consultancy partnerships work
We like to build lasting relationships. But that doesn't mean strict long-term contracts. Partnerships begin with a business risk audit and grow with you. Along the way, you set realistic compliance goals – and get the tools, tactics and training to achieve them.
