Every self-employed person in the UK needs this

Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, every self-employed person whose work could pose a risk to themselves or others is legally required to have health and safety documentation in place.

This is not a large-business requirement. It applies to sole traders, one-person businesses, home studios, and mobile workers equally. The size of your business does not change the legal obligation.

Sole traders and one-person businesses Working alone does not exempt you. If you use chemicals or see clients, the obligations apply in full.
Mobile and home-based workers Working from home or visiting clients does not reduce your compliance requirements - it often adds to them.
Chair renters and freelancers Renting a chair or working as a freelancer through a third party does not transfer your compliance obligations to them.
New businesses and established ones Whether you started last month or have been trading for years, you need documentation in place.
Your legal obligation

Why car valets need a thorough COSHH assessment

The product range in professional car valeting is more chemically complex than most cleaning trades. Strong acid wheel cleaners - often containing hydrofluoric acid compounds or strong sulfuric acid - are among the most hazardous substances used by any sole trader in any service industry. Traffic film removers contain strong alkaline compounds. Engine degreasers contain solvents. Paint protection products contain chemical compounds that cure through exposure to UV or moisture. || Each category of product presents different hazard profiles and exposure routes. The COSHH assessment needs to address every product in the regular valeting kit and the specific conditions under which it is used - including the enclosed vehicle environment for interior products. || CompliantDocs generates your COSHH assessment from the complete product range you tell us you use in your valeting business.
Health and safety compliance documents
The real problem

Car valeting COSHH documentation rarely reflects the actual hazard level of specialist valeting chemicals

Strong acid wheel cleaners in particular are among the most hazardous substances used by any sole trader, yet the COSHH documentation for car valets rarely reflects this hazard level. A proper assessment addresses each product category according to its actual hazard. CompliantDocs generates documentation that reflects the real chemical hazard profile of professional car valeting.
