HC Deb 27 October 1988 vol 139 c384W
Mr. Strang

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what is his estimate of the number of fixed workplaces; how many are registered with the Health and Safety Executive; and what plans he has to increase the number of workplaces that are registered.

Mr. Nicholls

There are approximately 695,000 fixed workplaces currently registered with the Health and Safety Executive. The Health and Safety Executive has published two leaflets "Don't wait until an Inspector Calls" and "500 Dead" to encourage small firms to comply with statutory requirements.
