Paul Richards, founder of Clearstep

Paul founded Clearstep to help businesses translate risk assessments and procedures into clear working practices that managers can brief and teams can follow.

He has managed health and safety arrangements for operational teams supporting British government and diplomatic work. His responsibilities have included assessing risks across multiple sites, developing safe working procedures, briefing and training staff, and checking that teams applied agreed controls. He has also planned for emergencies and used findings from operational reviews to improve procedures.

Paul’s background includes 12 years in the British Army and more than 14 years in close protection and operational leadership. That experience informs Clearstep’s approach to workplace reviews, from observing how work is carried out to setting priorities that managers can act on.
