Attention Employees

Is Your Workplace Displaying Old Information?   

Order your new Health & Safety leaflets, pocket cards (which can be handed out to staff) as well as A2/A3 size laminated posters online from the Health and Safety Executive website.

There are various versions of the poster, so that you can select the most appropriate for your business.  Employers are required, by law, to either display the HSE-approved law poster or to provide each of their workers with the equivalent leaflet
