The Health & Safety Authority (HSA) and their inspectors are fully committed to this initiative.

A Safety Representative is entitled to consult a Health and Safety Inspector about any aspect of Safety, Health and Welfare on site.

Inspectors will, as a matter of practice, meet with the Project Supervisor (Construction Stage), the contractor and his / her nominated representative for safety and the Site Safety Rep-resentative, ideally at the comm-encement of the inspection visit. 

The Site Safety Representative, the contractor, the Project Supervisor (Construction Stage) or his/her nominated rep-resentative for safety should then request to accompany the Insp-ector on the tour of inspection (except when he/she is investigating an accident).

Inspectors will, following the site inspection, provide a copy of a report or any notice, in writing, to the contractor, the

Project Supervisor (Construction Stage) or his/her nominated rep-resentative for safety and the Site Safety Representative, and others as appropriate (except for doc-uments relating to legal proceedings or to individuals).

Facilities should be made available if requested for private consultation between the Ins-pector and the Site Safety Rep-resentative.
