Complaining about a workplace and the enforcing authority

The enforcing authority for your workplace may be your local council or the Health and safety executive (HSE). Generally the local council enforces health and safety at most non-industrial workplaces such as catering, wholesale/ retail premises, consumer services, leisure/cultural sites, offices, religious premises, cosmetic treatment businesses and various other types of workplaces.

You can check by using the attached enforcing authority PDF which contains a general summary, although some individual premises may vary from the general rule. 

There is a search facility available within the PDF document, to use this click on the search (binoculars) icon from the tool bar and then type in the word or phrase you would like to search for or click on the find a word in the current PDF document option listed, type your word/phrase and click on next.
