Health and Safety Inspectors are not here simply to penalise the employers that fail to comply with the law. The purpose is to help you to understand what you need to do, and point out what might be wrong.

We enforce only when something is seriously wrong. Through accessible and authorative information, we aim to work with you and to help make our workplaces safer.

The inspectors are not there to catch people out, or to make life any more difficult than it is already.

You can expect:

Courtesy and assistance during the inspection

Advice and information

 Inspection of the workplace and health and safety documentation

The inspectors are dedicated professionals here to help make all our workplaces safer and to ensure employers meet their health and safety responsibilities
