Health and safety

The Health and Safety legislation is enforced by the Trafford Environmental Health Service and the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).

You can read more about our approach to health and safety enforcement in our policies.

Support for businesses

We have made a health and safety handbook for businesses with useful advice on health and safety management.

The HSE website is also a useful source of guidance for businesses and members of the public. You can find everything from example risk assessments to interactive tools, much of it tailored towards smaller businesses. Visit the HSE website.
