HSE Inspectors’ Guide to Improvement and Prohibition Notices
Introduction
This workshop will be delivered by a senior HSE inspector with
more than 25 years of experience and is a rare opportunity to
understand your regulator by seeing the world through an
inspector's eyes.
You will learn why, when and how HSE takes formal enforcement
action, how to influence formal HSE decisions and how to respond to
receipt of a notice.
The course will cover:
- The legal basis for HSE taking formal enforcement action and
the basic format of the Improvement and Prohibition Notice.
- How HSE inspectors form their judgement about whether to serve
formal notices - the factors that are taken into account and how an
inspector forms their opinion.
- An insight into how businesses can legitimately influence an
inspector in their enforcement decision.
- Options for both formal and informal actions that are available
to a business receiving a notice.
Who should attend?
Health and Safety Professionals responsible for managing or
advising on the interface between businesses and the HSE.

in their hands by an HSE inspector.
