Health & Safety Law Sign

Your legal duty • All employers are required to display a Health & Safety Law Poster, to inform employees and visitors of their duties. • The Health & Safety Executive (HSE) have released a new design of this statutory poster which takes effect from the 6th April 2009 and replaces all old versions. Benefits of the new poster • The new version now includes a unique, serial numbered hologram to ensure its authenticity. • It is now easier to read and understand, providing benefits from increased awareness to both workers and employers. • Unlike the previous poster, there is no need to provide the name and address of the enforcing authority for the premises.

Where should it be displayed? • This poster should be displayed in a prominent position where it is noticeable to employees, visitors and contractors. Ideally the posters will be displayed in numerous locations around your premises. Material & Dimensions • Heavy-duty 750 micron semi-rigid plastic. • Size (WxH): 420x595mm
