Every employer has a legal duty under the Health & Safety Information for Employees Regulations (HSIER) to display the approved HSE Law poster in a prominent position within the workplace. Failure to either display the poster or provide a copy of the approved leaflet to each member of staff is a breach of the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 and could lead to prosecution.
- The poster must be displayed in a prominent position
OR
- Each member of staff must be provided with a copy of the approved leaflet that outlines British Health & Safety Law.
