At Enterprise Recruitment we take Health and Safety of our staff, our candidates and our employers very seriously. We were encouraged this week to see the Labour Minister Simon Bridges, welcome the release of a discussion document outlining proposals for new health and safety regulations. These regulations will help people to comply with the new health and safety legislative regime when it comes into force next year.

“Regulations remove the guesswork about what is needed to meet duties under the law. This helps avoid unnecessary compliance costs that could arise from doing too much or too little,” says Mr Bridges.

Health and Safety in the workplace should not be an act of guesswork, so having some clear guidelines will be useful for the future and will hopefully assist the reduction of injuries in the workplace.
