Project Health and Safety Services

What Project Health and Safety Services does

Project Health and Safety Services Ltd (trading as Project HSS) is a Glasgow-headquartered, UK-wide health and safety consultancy and accredited training provider founded in 2013. The firm serves B2B clients across Construction, Civil Engineering, Manufacturing, Utilities, Rail, Oil & Gas, and Local Government, delivering on-site workplace inspections, incident investigations, HSE management system development, CDM support, cultural and behavioural programmes, GAP analysis, fire risk assessments, Fit2Fit FaceFit testing, and interim safety department outsourcing. The training arm is built on IOSH, CITB and UKATA accreditations, offering regulated classroom courses (SMSTS, SSSTS, IOSH Managing Safely, First Aid, Manual Handling, Fire Marshal) alongside an eLearning catalogue distributed through videotilehost.com.

The underlying technology layer is limited to a third-party eLearning hosting platform rather than proprietary software; the core delivery model is human-led consultancy and classroom instruction. Revenue is generated through three streams: professional services consultancy (largely quote-based), per-delegate training pricing (£100-£275 visible on selected courses), and bundled eLearning offerings. Named clients include Historic Environment Scotland, Glasgow Prestwick Airport, UNOPS, Scottish Canals, Story Contracting, Donaldson Timber Systems, and Frontline Safety UK. The firm is privately held, founder/owner-managed, with no disclosed institutional investors or external funding; Janette Heron joined as Chief Operating Officer in 2021.

Direct peers

• Astutis: UK-based accredited training provider specialising in IOSH, NEBOSH, and CITB qualifications with both classroom and eLearning delivery. Direct peer: competes head-to-head on the accredited training catalogue that anchors Project HSS's classroom line.
• WorkNest: UK H&S, HR, and employment law consultancy serving SMEs and mid-market clients. Direct peer: provides retained H&S consultancy, accredited training, and compliance documentation similar to Project HSS's portfolio.
• Peninsula Group: UK-based employment law, HR, and health & safety consultancy serving SMEs across multiple sectors. Direct peer: same B2B outsourced H&S/HR model with bundled consultancy and training offerings, though at significantly greater scale.
• Croner (Wolters Kluwer): Long-established UK H&S, HR, and employment law consultancy now part of Wolters Kluwer. Direct peer: delivers accredited training, retained H&S advice, and compliance documentation to UK businesses — directly competing with Project HSS in the same verticals.
• British Safety Council: UK membership and training body offering IOSH-accredited courses and H&S qualifications alongside advisory services. Direct peer: shares the same accredited training pathways and offers complementary consultancy, competing for the same corporate training budget.
• Citation: UK-based provider of HR, health & safety, and compliance services to SMEs and enterprises. Closest direct competitor: operates in the same accredited training (IOSH/CITB), H&S consultancy, and eLearning space with national delivery across multiple verticals.

Broad incumbents

• Bureau Veritas UK: Global testing, inspection, and certification company with a UK H&S consultancy and training practice. Broad incumbent: competes on enterprise H&S advisory and certification mandates that Project HSS also targets, especially with construction and infrastructure clients.
• SOCOTEC UK: Large UK testing, inspection, and certification group that also offers H&S consultancy and training. Broad incumbent: overlaps with Project HSS on workplace inspections, CDM support, and accredited training, but operates as a much larger multi-disciplinary TIC provider.

Others

• IOSH (Institution of Occupational Safety and Health): UK-based chartered body for H&S professionals that accredits training providers (including Project HSS) and runs its own qualifications. Ecosystem participant: not a direct competitor for consultancy but governs the accreditation framework on which Project HSS's training business depends.
• CITB (Construction Industry Training Board): Statutory training board for the UK construction sector that accredits SMSTS, SSSTS, and related courses delivered by providers like Project HSS. Ecosystem participant: regulator/standards-setter rather than competitor, but central to the training business model.
