| Abstract |
This Enforcement Policy Statement sets out the general principles and approach which HSC expects the health and safety enforcing authorities (mainly HSE and local authorities) to follow. All local authority and HSE staff who take enforcement decisions are required to follow HSC's Enforcement Policy Statement. In general, those staff will be inspectors, so this policy refers to inspectors for simplicity. Contents: Introduction; The purpose and method of enforcement; The principles of enforcement; Investigation; Prosecution; Death at work; Crown bodies; Penalties for health and safety offences; Further information. |
