The Diabetes Safety Organisation (DSO) was established to address the ever-present and increasing safety risk posed by diabetes. Getting organisations to recognise there is a huge invisible risk that is currently not being addressed, leaving employees exposed to a potential fatality and companies open to criminal liability. We provide an effective solution tailored to the needs of your business.

As all organisations have a duty under the Health and Safety at Work Act (1974) to ensure a safe system of work, organisations will have in place, risk assessments, method statements and policies to ensure a safe working environment. However, few organisations have policies in place to address the ever-increasing risk of diabetes – this is where we can help. We provide courses that equip your staff with the information they need to understand and manage diabetes and its impact.
