Health and Safety Requirements
The Council also has a number of free publications available providing advice and guidance on Health & Safety please contact us directly if you want a Health & Safety pack or you have a specific query.
All office and shop premises where persons are employed are required by law to complete an OSR1 form and return it to the appropriate local authority.

Displaying a Health & Safety Law poster will meet employers' legal duty to inform employees of their duties and general requirements under health & safety legislation. Additional information must be provided on the local address of the relevant enforcing authority.
The poster is available from any good bookseller; or at www.hsebooks.co.uk alternatively, telephone HSE's InfoLine 08701 545500 between 08:30 - 17:00 Monday to Friday or fax 02920 859260. You can email the InfoLine (form is called feedback) as an alternative.
