Cross Compliance Solutions (CXCS) have bolstered their market leading agricultural consultancy practice with the launch of a new service offering, Farm Safety Solutions (FSS).

Farm Safety Solutions will provide agricultural businesses throughout the UK with a comprehensive Risk Management service for all of their Health and Safety needs, as well as advice on other hazards, such as fire and security.

FSS will help farmers to take a pro-active approach to their risk management and believe that they have developed a unique method to assess farm businesses in a cost effective way, with a risk assessment process that is second to none in the agricultural industry.

CXCS are experienced in helping farmers through their RPA and EA inspections and have attended hundreds of inspections on behalf of their clients. They ensure that their clients are fully prepared with all of the relevant paperwork up-to-date, helping them to avoid any cross compliance breaches or subsequent BPS penalties. They offer a bespoke service advising on all areas of Cross Compliance, including Greening, Basic Payments Scheme, mapping and more.

Charles Mayson, Managing Director of FSS explained, “Our mission is to help farmers get on top of their Health and Safety issues; to understand the risks that they face and their obligations as employers and business owners. We decided to move into this sector to utilise our experience in working with farmers to offer comprehensive Health and Safety advice and to make a real change within the industry identified as the most dangerous to work in in the UK”.
