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 microblading technicians need a detailed risk assessment

The manual blade tool used in microblading creates a sharps risk that requires specific documentation. Your risk assessment needs to address how the blade is handled during the procedure, how accidental cuts to the practitioner are managed, how used blades are secured and disposed of, and what happens if a client experiences unexpected bleeding during the treatment. || Client screening is another area requiring detailed documentation. The risk assessment should cover how you screen clients for contraindications, how you manage clients who present with conditions that affect skin healing, and what your protocol is if a client has a reaction during or after treatment. || Cross-contamination prevention between clients is also an essential element. How are single-use items disposed of? How are reusable tools sterilised? What is the process if a client has a known blood-borne condition?
Health and safety compliance documents
The real problem

Generic risk assessments do not cover the sharps and skin-penetration elements of microblading

Available general beauty risk assessment templates are written for non-invasive treatments and do not address the specific risks of working with a blade tool. The sections on sharps, accidental injury, blood exposure, and client screening for blood-borne conditions are absent from most generic templates. || An insurer dealing with a claim following a client complication will look carefully at whether your risk assessment covered the relevant risks. Documentation that does not mention the blade tool or sharps handling leaves a significant gap. || CompliantDocs generates your risk assessment from your answers about your microblading practice, producing documentation that covers every element of the treatment.
