Health and Safety Law 2024

Employers, the self-employed and anyone in control of work premises must report and record particular categories of work-related incidents and “near misses” under RIDDOR. These incidents must be notified in writing to the relevant enforcing authority, either the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) or the local authority (see Chapter 2 on how to identify the correct enforcing authority for each sector).
