• Safety Department Overview

  Safe

  At Risk

• Where minor issues have been raised as either Observations (OFI) or at Risk items then the overall safety of site may not be compromised and the site can be deemed to be "safe". However, it is the opinion of the inspector that there is serious or imminent risk of significant injury or ill health or if it is the inspectors opinion that were HSE to visit site they would be likely to take formal enforcement action then the site overall should be marked as "At Risk"
