  1. Be part of the solution\\ HSE’s strategy for health and safety in Great Britain Eddy Tarn Operational Strategy Division Health and Safety Executive

  2. Our Ten Goals \\To investigate work related accidents and ill health and take enforcement action to prevent harm and secure justice when appropriate. \\To encourage strong leadership in championing the importance of, and a common sense approach to, health and safety in the workplace. \\To motivate focus on the core aims of health and safety and, by doing so, to help risk makers and managers distinguish between real health and safety issues and trivial or ill-informed criticism.

  3. Our Ten Goals \\To specifically target key health issues and to identify and work with those bodies best placed to bring about a reduction in the incidence rate and number of cases of work related ill health. \\To set priorities and, within those priorities, to identify which activities, their length and scale, deliver a significant reduction in the rate and number of deaths and accidents. \\To adapt and customise approaches to help the increasing numbers of SMEs in different sectors comply with their health and safety obligations.

  4. Our Ten Goals \\To reduce the likelihood of low frequency, high impact catastrophic incidents while ensuring that Great Britain maintains its capabilities in those industries strategically important to the country’s economy and social infrastructure. \\To take account of wider issues that impact on health and safety as part of the continuing drive to improve Great Britain’s health and safety performance.

  5. Our Ten Goals \\To encourage an increase in competence, which will enable greater ownership and profiling of risk, thereby promoting sensible and proportionate risk management. \\To reinforce the promotion of worker involvement and consultation in health and safety matters throughout unionised and non-unionised workplaces of all sizes.

  6. HSE 2010/11 Business Plan ‘Worker involvement and consultation’ HSE’s aims are that organisations can describe and demonstrate their approach towards worker involvement and understand the benefits collaboration brings in preventing work-related ill health and injury.

  7. HSE’s objectives to progress this aim are: Objective 10: To influence and support workers to get involved in health and safety and to promote the benefits of joint problem solving. Objective 11: To determine and routinely examine the extent of worker involvement.
