The company doesn't need to recognise the union for you to take advice.

no risk assesment has been done, thats for 5 members of staff or more

If this really is the case then I would have serious concerns if I were you, safety should always come first.

You shouldn't be carrying out any task without a Risk Assessment in place

As mentioned there is no requirement to have a written risk assessment if you employee less than 5 staff. Northern star said there are only 3 of them. https://www.hse.gov.uk/simple-health-safety/risk/steps-needed-to-manage-risk.htm

Thats incorrect, you dont need a Health and safety policy if you employee less than 5 people.

Every task requires a Risk Assessment regardless of how small it is.
