Local Authority Membership of CLEAPSS

The Health and Safety at Work Act and subsequent Regulations require employers to protect their employees by, for example, providing safe working conditions, information & training for health and safety, and (model) risk assessments for activities (required under a range of Regulations, including COSHH). Joining CLEAPSS enables the local authority to discharge its responsibilities since member schools have access to high quality health and safety advice, with curriculum support and advice on using high quality practical work for science, design and technology and art. This guide outlines the many benefits and services offered to local authority members.
