Health and Safety Executive (HSE) enforces health and safety legislation for most industry sectors in Great Britain - we cover factories, building sites, mines, farms, fairgrounds, quarries, chemical plant, offshore and nuclear installations, schools, hospitals and other places where there is a work activity. You will not find cases on this site for Northern Ireland or the Republic of Ireland authorities.
Prior to 1 April 2006, HSE also enforced health and safety legislation for railways and you will find relevant cases on the prosecutions database - however, the Office of Rail Regulation (ORR) became the health and safety regulator for the rail industry when responsibility was transferred from HSE on 1 April 2006.
This site gives details of prosecution cases which resulted in a successful conviction: Health & Safety Executive's Public Register of Convictions. |
