Health & Safety Reps

Everybody who works has basic rights, which include things like sufficient space to work in, clean and well-lit workplaces and safe working practices.

Health and Safety Reps work to make the workplace as safe as possible. They can:

  • Make representations to the employer on behalf of members on any health, safety and welfare matter
  • Represent members in consultation with Health and Safety Executive inspectors or other enforcing authorities
  • Inspect designated workplace areas at least every three months
  • Investigate any potential hazards, complaints by members and causes of accidents, dangerous occurrences and diseases
