I am looking for any reports from the past 5 years or so where individual supervisors or managers have been prosecuted in health & safety cases.
It would be especially useful if anyone could point me towards any cases involving office or light industry environments.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Have a great weekend!
Mick

Not sure of any individual case for managers, although Barrow re: legionnaire comes to mind regarding prosecution?

Have you tried the HSE data base 'name and shame'? Sections 7,8,33 & 36 offences of HSWA would apply, although most are rarely used against employees.

There have been 2 recently - unfortunately I don't have the links at hand, but someone else may provide them?
One on the railways where the supervisor was prosecuted and the other at a chair lift in the Scottish mountains?

The Barrow case seems to be the obvious and high profile choice. I would check the HSE database as suggested above, S7 and S37. There was a case in Norfolk, Thetford way where a couple of people dies after entering a slurry tanker. Also fatality at a waster paper plant in Norfolk, owner/manager convicted, fined and imprisoned.
