Health and Safety

All employers are legally obliged to have a Health & Safety Statement in place, which includes a detailed risk assessment. However, the most recent report from the Health and Safety Authority (HSA) showed that 53 percent of safety statements did not fully comply with legislative duties. In 2007, the Authority conducted 13,000 inspections across a variety of workplaces and sectors These findings show that while many employers have safety statements in place, they are not effectively managing their health and safety risks to the HSA’s expected standards. In this section, members will find the tools to help them improve their compliance levels.
