Online survey seeks views on simplifying key regulations

HSE is currently reviewing the regulations concerning the control of hazardous and dangerous substances in the workplace, with the aim of:

“making these more simple and straightforward without reducing the level of protection”

If you work with hazardous or dangerous substances or advise others HSE would like to hear about your experiences through an online survey  which closes on Tuesday 18th October 2016.
