Your legal obligation
What self-employed hairdressers need to have in place
As a self-employed hairdresser, a COSHH assessment covering your colour, bleach, and chemical treatment products, a risk assessment covering your salon or working environment, a health and safety policy, and fire safety documentation are all required. Chair renters, mobile hairdressers, and home salon operators all have the same legal compliance obligations as salon owners - self-employment does not reduce these requirements. || Having proper documentation in place also protects you professionally and satisfies the requirements of professional body membership and public liability insurance. CompliantDocs produces everything in minutes.
The real problem
Self-employed hairdressers are among the most at-risk for occupational dermatitis but often lack formal COSHH documentation
Hairdressing is one of the highest-risk occupations for occupational contact dermatitis in the UK. Despite this, formal COSHH documentation covering colour and bleach chemicals is often absent from self-employed hairdressing businesses. CompliantDocs produces comprehensive documentation in minutes.
