HSA`s Plans for 2011
Share: 
The Health and Safety Authority`s chief executive, Martin O`Halloran outlined Authority`s plans for 2011:
- HSA plans to carry out 14,500 workplace inspections in 2011. This is 3,000 fewer than last year. O`Halloran stated that “the higher the risk, the greater the likelihood of inspection”.
- A record 3,000 agricultural inspections will be carried out in 2011. This is due to the fact that 25 farm fatalities occurred in 2010.
- The Authority plans to engage with small and micro-sized businesses (employing less than 10 employees). An on-line tool will be launched to help small businesses comply with health and safety legislation.
- The Health and Safety Authority will continue with its legislation program. Amendments to General Application Regulations and Construction Regulations are expected. Other legislation and codes of practice that will be published or updated/revised include Chemical Agents Regulations, Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road Regulations, the Biological Agents Regulations, Chemical Agents Code of Practice, etc.
