Regulatory Framework

Regulated by Health & Safety Executive (HSE)

Construction is one of the UK's most regulated sectors. The HSE enforces compliance with HASAWA 1974, CDM 2015, COSHH, Working at Height Regulations and RIDDOR across building and trade activities in England, Scotland and Wales. Failing an inspection can result in immediate site closure. In Northern Ireland the same duties are enforced by HSENI under the Health and Safety at Work (Northern Ireland) Order 1978 — select your nation and documents cite the correct enforcing authority.

Every document generated by ProPolicyForge is built to the current version of these standards — not a template last updated two years ago.

You get an inspection-ready Word register, a working Excel tracker, and a calendar (.ics) feed that puts every recurring deadline into Outlook, Google Calendar or Apple Calendar.
