“We signed up to the Barbour Comprehensive platform in May 2022 as we were looking at an effective way of making sure our IMS System remained compliant to the legislation elements of the ISO 14001 & ISO 45001 standards. The induction process was superb, and the support given by the Barbour EHS team during this process was outstanding.
We have chosen the Health & Safety and the Environment & Energy modules as they were the best fit for our business, in particular the Legal Register which is very comprehensive. Building this element is still a work in progress for us, but, so far, we have found it easy to use and the training we have been provided definitely makes it a straightforward process.
As QHSE Manager, I use Barbour EHS every day to search for relevant content covering a variety of topics. The Technical Guides, Director’s Briefings and Employee Factsheets are very informative, but one of the highlights has been the Toolbox talks which are always up to date, exceptionally useful, cover an extensive range of topics and have been very well received by the team.
Where previously we would have to trawl the web searching for information then manually filtering what is relevant and current, we now have access to regular webinars & briefing emails which means that we are always up to date, and we don’t miss anything.
In a nutshell, Barbour EHS is an invaluable resource which provides up-to-date, easily accessible information. It not only enables us to remain compliant but also saves us valuable time in a constantly changing world of EHS legislation.”
“We use Barbour on a daily basis to help advise our clients on FM topics that help them to remain totally compliant as a business. We use Barbour to support us with legislation updates, best practice, up to date case law to help our clients understand legal precedence and deliver toolbox talks to support FMs and their teams on a vast array of subjects.
Most recently we supported a client with gas detection equipment for use in confined spaces where our client was likely to expose contractors onto their site to methane gas and what they could do to ensure their safety. Our client read a variety of documents from the HSE, World Health Organisation and Barbour resources with their guide on confined spaces to help them to develop a policy and put in place appropriate risk assessments and processes as a direct result of the advice we gave them from the Barbour system.
We can honestly say that, without Barbour, our clients would be less informed and less compliant when it comes to FM topics.”
“British Engines first researched into using Barbour Comprehensive as our standalone group legislation update service after hearing positive feedback from colleagues at an IOSH event. After carrying out some cost benefit analysis, we could see there were significant savings in combining our resources into one service, as historically we had subscriptions with three smaller services.
We requested a demonstration of the system and found that they were extremely supportive in ensuring we understood what Barbour could offer us not only in legislation updates but also thousands of HSE documents, policies, procedures, toolbox talks, CEO briefs and so on. The resource we now have access to seems endless.
We went on to purchase a subscription which has been of great use for our group in driving improvements, ensuring we are legally compliant and conforming with ISO 45001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001. We have users now around the group and legal registers in place across several sites.
The support from Barbour along the way has been first class and at this moment in time we plan to subscribe again next year.”
“Barbour Consultancy was recommended to us a few years ago after a tough 14001 audit during which our aspects & impacts and legal registers were scrutinised and subsequently heavily criticised! After a few e-mails, a telephone consultation and a site visit, we became the proud owners of greatly simplified and comprehensive registers.
We have been so impressed with the quality and clarity of service from Barbour Consultancy that we have used them to set up and maintain our environmental registers across 2 sites and recently expanded that to include our Health & Safety register also. At all stages of consultation and periodic review, the advice/updates provided is no-nonsense, concise and easy to understand. Maintaining compliance really has never been easier and the peace of mind that using their services provide means that I would recommend them to anyone considering using them.”
“As a Worldwide Facilities Manager, it is important to understand the laws, legislation and regulations that are in place in the countries that you manage. The Barbour Comprehensive UK and international solution gives me this. With the information available, it allows me to do things such as planning budgets in these countries, understand areas such as labour laws but ultimately ensures that we are caring for the employees and stores in the right way.
Since finding Barbour it has revolutionised the way we work in our organisation and I can highly recommend this solution to all FMs and HR teams whether they work in the UK, Europe or in a global position.”
“On behalf of our organisation, we would like to say thank you for the services Barbour have provided. As a business, Barbour has shown us that one click of a button has answered a lot of our enquiries in relation to health, quality, safety and environment. Our account manager has helped not only myself, but others, guiding them through any queries we had. Keep up the good work. As we meet and succeed the day to day challenges as a business we will endeavour to keep our partnership with Barbour a solid one as we both strive for even safer future.”
“I wanted to say what a great resource Barbour Comprehensive has proved to be. Over the last 17 years I have worked in H&S in numerous industries, Housing, construction and more recently Manufacturing in precision engineering.
I have bought Barbour into every company I have worked for. Not only do I find it incredible useful for gap analysis and keeping on top of legislation all the companies I have since departed have kept it in place.
It is something I recommend to people all the time, not just because of its functionality but also due to the people that run it. I have had a few account managers over my time and each and every one has been a delight to work with and always goes, what I feel, is a step beyond to ensure I have all the support I need.
I hope to keep working with Barbour for more years to come and hope you continue to be the high standard, faultless H&S service I have come to know and love.”
“One of the primary objectives of Health & Safety and Environmental Management is to stay Legally Compliant. Since I subscribed to Barbour Consolidated, I have found it to be of huge benefit – my previous method illustrated I had downloaded inaccurate, out-of-date information from a range of Internet search engines.
I was able to update and improve my information with total confidence; the format and layout of Barbour Consolidated information makes it easy to understand, relate and connect it to an organisation and makes the ‘evaluation of compliance’ more meaningful. The ‘what’s new’ section is brilliant!
The way the information is laid out in different categories makes it very user friendly and helpful — it’s a breakthrough in the minefield of legislation and a must have investment for all practitioners involved in H&S and EMS. Thank you Barbour Consolidated team.”
“We have recently adopted Barbour Comprehensive as our go-to place for legal reference material and resources to assist the Safety, Health and Environmental Specialists.
We have transferred our legal registers to the platform which has greatly enhanced our ability to ensure we remain current and consider changes to legislation that may affect our business.
We also now have access to a wealth of professionally prepared and up-to-date awareness and training material: factsheets, briefing notes and webinars we can adapt and use to improve the knowledge and understanding our management team and employees.
Throughout our transition to using the platform, our users have been provided with support, training, helpful advice and tips on how best to use what is now available to us. So far our queries, concerns and questions have been dealt with quickly and professionally with that personal touch and friendly approach that makes working with Barbour a pleasure.”
“Barbour Consolidated has made access to up-to-date legislation simple and easy.
The summaries and overviews mean that I can get a quick understanding of the implications of the legislation and the access to the full document means everything is in one place.
Registration is simple and the team are friendly and efficient. They have been quick to answer my questions and fun to work with.
The system is user friendly and our employees have registered in greater numbers that we anticipated demonstrating how popular the system is.
There is no doubt that Barbour Consolidated is value for money and a quality service that we would not do without now we are subscribers.”
“I have been using Barbour for almost 4 years now since my appointment as a Protection (Fire Safety) Officer. My initial (and I believe most of Officers) usage was to check current British Standards and other technical documents to ensure we were up to date and maintaining continuity, an important part of our role. Once I became more proficient in its use and speaking to one of your colleagues some time ago, I set up a number of bookmarks within Shared Folders to reduce search time for all of our users so we have access to the more common documents all of the time.
Following on from our training session last week to familiarise myself with Administration duties etc. you have now me made me aware of other resources e.g. Technical Guides, Directors Briefing, Record Forms etc. that I believe we will use extensively in the near future as a service.
Your training, knowledge and willingness to ensure we get the most from the service is 2nd to none, I am now planning to run some in house familiarisation sessions with all of our officers to ensure we all use the service to its maximum capability.”
“I have implemented the use of Barbour Comprehensive in several companies and would not be without it. The information and documentation within it is extremely invaluable and makes for an effective and efficient way of not only keeping up to date with legal requirements, but also providing help to implement continual improvements to the management of health, safety and environment.”
“Barbour saves time and the support from the team is excellent.
Barbour Comprehensive makes providing technical support and advice to my business much easier. Having UK and international legislation, guidance, standards, audit tools and training in one place enables me to find information quickly and easily and saves me time on almost a daily basis.
I also administrate our Barbour account and the support the Barbour customer service team provide to me, and the training offered to new users is excellent and always receives positive feedback from our teams.”
“Having recently assumed a wider regional role, it was important to ensure that our global Health & Safety system was robust and beyond reproach.
After spending many frustrating hours searching the web for key legislation across a diverse portfolio, I came across Barbour Comprehensive.
Having used Barbour early on in my career, I made contact and couldn’t be more pleased with the result.
Now my global team have up-to-date & relevant information within a few keystrokes – gone are the days of misinformation and endless web searches.
The website is easy to use and packed with resources we didn’t actually know we needed until presented with them.
We were fortunate at an early stage to work with a sales representative who actually cared about ensuring we chose the right products for our needs.
I can honestly say that Barbour has simplified our Health & Safety approach immeasurably.”
“Using Barbour Comprehensive for our legal registers, both for Health and Safety and Environment, has made my life much easier.
When changes and updates are made to any of the documents we hold in our registers, I am alerted and as well as the updated legislation a summary is provided to help me quickly understand the impacts the changes may have on our business.
As well as the legal documents, Barbour provide a vast library of information in many formats which we have used to promote conversations and focus areas throughout all levels of our business.
We are regularly updated by our Account Manager, Sharon, on any changes or innovations to the product, and Sharon has also provided excellent training for both myself and our teams on how to get the best from the system.”
