Dear all
Can anyone think of a recent prosecution regarding lack of adequate welfare facilities that resulted in a substantial fine?
Any help greatly appreciated.

Are you refering to the Workplace, Health, Safety and Welfare Regulations in this thread? If so the penalties are generally drawn by the procecution under the H&S at Work Act.

AS a quide the law says that where something shall be done as it does in Regulation 21 (2) it is a must do or you are in breach of the law. The specific clause you quote applies to washing facilities only therefore the requirements stated in clause 2 must be provided as a minimum, use table 1 of the approved code of practice to tell how many you need.
Remember the term SHALL is absolute and therefore is legally binding on the employer.
