Health & safety - HSE Monitor

HSE online guidance 


A webpage replacing guidance HSG234 and providing guidance on musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risks in the cleaning industry is now available. 


New guidance has also been produced in response to the increasing use of dry/wet cooling systems. A new webpage aimed at employers and others in control of premises or with health and safety responsibilities for others gives practical guidance on how to assess and control the risks due to Legionella bacteria, which can cause Legionnaires’ disease.
