Complain about health and safety

Health and Safety complaints

Everyone is entitled to work in a workplace which is free from risks to health and safety, or where risks have been adequately controlled. Employees should also be trained and/or supervised in order to minimise risks.

Additionally, employees are entitled to expect basic welfare facilities at their place of work and opportunity to use them.

Complaints in the workplace

  • All complaints are dealt with confidentially and no names are released without the permission of the complainant.
  • Inspectors will investigate the complaint and may undertake visits to carry out inspections in order to identify the issues complained of.
  • Where appropriate, action will be taken to ensure the issue is resolved satisfactorily, where it is within our control to do so.
