Health & Safety Software for UK SMEs
Health and safety software for UK small businesses
Featherstone Safety Hub is health and safety software built for UK small and medium businesses. It brings risk assessments, COSHH, the training matrix, an incident register with RIDDOR screening, evidence and monthly reviews into one place, so you can manage compliance yourself without spreadsheets, filing cabinets or an expensive consultant.
Built by NEBOSH-qualified practitioners, transparently priced from £29 per month, with a 14-day free trial and no long-term contract.
Everything you need to stay compliant, in one place
Most UK small businesses manage health and safety across a mix of spreadsheets, paper folders and memory. It works until something goes wrong, an inspector visits, or a client asks for evidence, and then the gaps appear. Featherstone Safety Hub replaces that patchwork with a single, organised system that keeps your records current, your reviews on schedule, and your evidence ready.
The platform is designed so that a business owner or manager without a safety background can produce professional, defensible records, because the structure reflects what the HSE expects. You stay in control of your compliance rather than depending on an outside adviser for routine tasks.
- Risk assessments and COSHH: build professional assessments from guided templates with risk scoring and printable PDF output.
- Training matrix: track every employee's training status with automatic overdue alerts.
- Incident register: log accidents, near misses and dangerous occurrences with built-in RIDDOR screening.
- Evidence library: store certificates and documents with expiry tracking and colour-coded status.
- Monthly safety reviews: structured reviews that keep you compliant and give clients a transparent record.
Why UK SMEs choose Featherstone Safety Hub
Many health and safety providers are built for large organisations or sold as advisory contracts with pricing quoted only after a sales call and a commitment of one to three years. That model is often more than a small business needs, and more than it wants to pay for.
Featherstone Safety Hub takes a different approach. Pricing is published openly, billing is monthly, and you can cancel at any time. The professional expertise is built into the software rather than charged separately, and you can be up and running the same day with a free trial.
- Transparent pricing: £29 per month Starter, £79 per month Professional, with optional add-ons, all published openly.
- No lock-in: monthly billing with no multi-year contract and cancel any time.
- Real expertise: built and supported by NEBOSH-qualified UK health and safety practitioners.
- Works offline: use it on site without a signal and it syncs automatically when you reconnect.
What the law expects of you
Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, every employer must ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare of employees and others affected by their work. The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 require you to assess risks and act on them, and businesses with five or more employees must have a written health and safety policy and record the significant findings of their risk assessments.
In practice this means keeping risk assessments current, training staff and recording it, logging and investigating incidents, and being able to produce evidence when asked. Featherstone Safety Hub is structured around exactly these duties, so meeting them becomes part of your routine rather than a scramble before an inspection.
Grows with your business
The Starter plan covers the core duties every business shares. As you grow, the Professional plan adds fire checks, contractor management, a document register, DSE assessments and toolbox talks, and optional add-ons cover Permit to Work, Environmental management and a library of 23 awareness training courses that feed results straight into your training matrix.
Because everything lives in one connected system, your training, evidence and records stay joined up as you add modules, rather than scattering across new tools.

Common questions
The best health and safety software for a small business is one that covers your core legal duties without enterprise cost or complexity. Featherstone Safety Hub is built specifically for UK SMEs, covering risk assessments, COSHH, training, incidents and evidence in one place, with transparent pricing from £29 per month and a 14-day free trial.

Even very small businesses have legal duties under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, including risk assessments and, with five or more employees, a written health and safety policy. Software makes these duties easier to meet and proves you have met them, which matters during an HSE inspection, an insurance claim or a client audit.
