He is a chartered health and safety practitioner, a member of the Institute of Occupational Health and Safety (IOSH) for 18 years and was one of the first in the UK to gain chartered status.
Ron also holds membership of the International Institute for Risk and Safety Management. He is currently active on safety committees at the HSE, and within entertainment-based safety groups.

"Offering standards advice to clients is a key part of our business," noted RHC director, Roland Hemming. "The addition of Ron's enormous experience in this domain will enable us to be even more detailed and comprehensive. Furthermore, his wide-ranging health and safety experience will assist us with the many projects that we manage for installers."
Clients can engage Ron on a daily basis or they can buy blocks of time in advance at a discounted rate to allow several members of staff to ask for advice on an ad-hoc basis as required.
