Posted By Lee Bennett Provision of poster or leaflet 4.—(1) An employer shall, in relation to each of his employees- (a) ensure that the approved poster is kept displayed in a readable condition- (i) at a place which is reasonably accessible to the employee while he is at work, and (ii) in such a position in that place as to be easily seen and read by that employee; or (b) give to the employee the approved leaflet.

Posted By Jack Alan, not quite sure what you mean by 'certain areas we are not allowed to enter i.e offices workshops'. Who is not allowed to? You when carying out your inspection? Employees? The bottom line is, is the poster reasonably accessible to employees at present?

Posted By Ken Taylor If you mean that your employer has told you that there are certain areas that you must not inspect, I suggest that you ensure that this is committed to writing (at least by yourself in a reply to your employer) and safely filed.
