Practical health & safety advice backed by real experience
MCS is led by Alex Hinchliffe, a NEBOSH Diploma-qualified health and safety professional with more than 25 years' experience in manufacturing and operational leadership, including multi-site responsibility and ISO 45001 implementation.
The approach is deliberately practical: understand the risk, meet the legal requirement and put controls in place that people can actually work with.
