Under The Health and Safety (Fees) Regulations 2012, those who break health and safety laws are liable for recovery of HSE's related costs, including, inspection, investigation and taking enforcement action.
Geoffrey Podger, HSE's Chief Executive, said:
"The most basic safety mistakes in the workplace can devastate lives and result in real costs to industry.
It is right that those who fail to meet their legal obligations should pay HSE's costs rather than the public purse having to do so."
