Risk Assessment (NI)

This section focusses on Health and Safety requirements.

Management of Health and Safety in the parish is the responsibility of the Select Vestry.  Even if you do not employ people, the Health and Safety at Work (Northern Ireland) Order 1978 is considered best practice to ensure the safety of all those who are involved with your parish and its activities.

For templates and information on health and safety please visit the following page:

If you are not insured by Ecclesiastical, you can contact your own insurer for a template or use the information as appropriate from the Ecclesiastical website.

If you require further advice please contact your diocesan support team.
