Amendments to the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 2003

Overview

The Isle of Man Government is seeking feedback on the proposed amendments to the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 2003. These amendments are designed to address evolving workforce trends and enhance protections for all workers, including those provided through employment agencies.

Why your views matter

The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations require employers to assess and manage risks to their employees', and where appropriate, other persons’ health and safety. These regulations mandate that employers implement appropriate measures to control risks, provide necessary health and safety information and training, and ensure effective communication and cooperation.

It is important therefore to review and amend our legislation to ensure that it remains relevant and up to date.

It is crucial to seek the views of those affected by any changes to health and safety legislation, the Isle of Man Health and Safety at Work etc. Act requires the Department to consult with organisations who are affected by changes to legislation.
