HSL does not currently licence the re-use of content from
research reports commissioned by the Health and Safety Executive
(HSE) or other commercial customers. Further details of
HSL publications can be found on our Publications page.
Examples of standard licence conditions and pricing
information are available by following the relevant links in
the table above. HSL reserve the right to apply discretionary
exemptions to charges for licencing our Crown Copyright
materials. These are most often applied for limited academic
re-use or where the perceived contribution of the re-use (in terms
of improvement to health and safety) can justifiably offset the
standard licence fee. Such exemptions are solely at the
discretion of HSL, although we welcome your justification should
you wish to be considered for such an exemption.
