What to expect when an inspector calls

Make sure you are prepared for when an HSE inspector calls at your business.

Our downloadable leaflet When a health and safety inspector calls tells you:

  • what to expect when we visit your business
  • how to let workers and their representatives know about information an inspector may provide during a visit

We have a short animation explaining how inspections are carried out and why they help keep people healthy and safe at work.

There are currently inspections taking place in the construction and manufacturing sectors. Follow the below links for more information:
