Our Story

Practical health and safety. Straightforward advice.

Built in Wigan for North West businesses, we replace corporate jargon with sensible, hands-on support that makes health and safety straightforward.

Our Approach

North West Expertise, Shop Floor Reality

Shielded Workplaces was founded in Wigan, as a family run business, to offer owner-managed SMEs across the North West a direct, personal alternative to large corporate consultancies. We believe health and safety should support your business, not create unnecessary bureaucracy.

Our consultants work directly with you. Understanding your operations to provide practical, prioritised action plans you can actually implement.

Our Principles

Approachable, Straightforward, Practical, Professional, Honest, Proportionate

We believe in sensible compliance. Our advice is always clear, actionable, and tailored to your business realities.

Our Network

Transparent Specialist Referrals

We are honest about the limits of our expertise. For highly specialised services like occupational health, occupational hygiene, or LEV examination, we transparently recommend partners who are trusted in their field.

This ensures you always receive the most competent advice for your specific needs, maintaining our commitment to practical and honest support without compromise.
