Health & Safety Representatives and Committees

Overview

Under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 (HSWA), businesses must have regular discussions between workers and employers about health and safety.

Many businesses choose to have health and safety representatives and/or committees as they are a well-established way to support worker engagement and participation.

Competent Health and Safety Representatives and/or Health and Safety Committees (HSC) are essential for creating a safer and healthier workplace. This leads to happier and more engaged workers, which increases productivity and reduces costs by actively managing workplace hazards and risks.
