Prime Safety

What Prime Safety does

Prime Safety, operated by Prime Consultancy Group Ltd., is a UK-based health and safety training and compliance consultancy headquartered in Maidstone, Kent. The company delivers accredited training courses (IOSH, CITB, UKATA, NDTG, and First Aid), on-the-job qualification assessments (NVQs and NPORS), and competency card services (CSCS, CCDO, ACAD), alongside a compliance consultancy practice covering CDM advisory, ISO management systems, site inspections and audits, fire risk assessments, accident investigation, RAMS review, COSHH, retained advisor engagements, and training matrix management. Prime Safety serves regulated employers and contractors across construction, demolition, asbestos removal, manufacturing, environmental services, healthcare, education, and veterinary sectors across the UK.

The company's technology layer consists of two proprietary products: the Prime Reporting App, a digital application for health and safety incident reporting and compliance documentation, and the Client H&S Portal, an online portal enabling clients to centrally track safety compliance. The technology stack is positioned around ease-of-use and interoperability rather than automation or AI capabilities, and is intended to complement — not replace — the firm's training and advisory services.

The business operates on a diversified revenue model: one-time fees for individual classroom and online courses, unit pricing for NVQ/NPORS qualification assessments, professional services fees for consultancy and audit work, and bespoke multi-year training contracts for tailored enterprise programmes. CITB grant funding assistance is offered as a price-offset for eligible construction clients. Distribution is direct-sales led via the company website, phone, and email, with delivery occurring at the Maidstone training facility, on-site at client premises across the UK, and through self-paced online booking.
