HSE Launches Campaign to Protect Migrant Construction Workers

The new HSE campaign wants to get the message across to workers from these communities about the role of the HSE in helping to protect them using existing law and making them aware that they have just as many rights to a healthy and safe working environment as indigenous workers.

As well as employing Romanian, Polish and Indian outreach workers, HSE has produced health and safety information in different languages, for example wallet-sized cards which will be distributed among the communities.

A dedicated phone line, web pages and an email address have been set up so workers can contact HSE with confidence.

You can contact the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) by calling one of these Helpline numbers (English also spoken):

Please note: All calls made to these numbers are confidential and you do not have to give your name if you don't want to.

Alternatively you can email them, and to find out more visit the dedicated website.
