The impact of Brexit on safety laws

All change? As the Brexit draws ever closer, some reports are predicting a major impact on health and safety legislation. However, the truth is somewhat different. The current plan is to introduce the Health and Safety (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2018 . These clarify that existing duties remain and do not introduce any new obligations on employers. Any major changes to legislation are unlikely to follow any time soon.

At Brexit, the Health and Safety (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2018 come into effect. These clarify that existing duties remain and do not introduce any new obligations on employers.
