» Back to listing Review of Workplace Health, Safety & Welfare ACOP – L24
Following an initial consultation in June 2012, it was agreed by the HSE Board that a number of ACOPs would be revised – in line with the recommendation by Professor Löfstedt in his report ‘Reclaiming health and safety for all’. A revised version of the above ACOP is now available for consultation. Changes include:
• Simplifying the language to clarify what dutyholders must do to comply with the Workplace Regulations
• Updating the publication to include the provisions of the Miscellaneous Amendment Regs 2002
• Improving guidance and references to the most up-to-date and relevant standards for advice
• Removing out-of-date duties and requirements that are superseded by new regulations.
The consultation period will run from 7 May to 30 July 2013. The consultative document and draft version of the revised ACOP is available on the HSE website -
