About Us

Health and Safety Works NI (HSWNI), the small business advisory service of the Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland (HSENI) was set up in 2004 specifically to help Northern Ireland small businesses improve their workplace health and safety management, understand their legal responsibilities and compete effectively in the marketplace.

Although HSWNI is an integral part of HSENI it is separate and distinct from HSENI’s compliance arm and has no enforcement powers.

The aim of HSWNI is to address the barriers faced by small businesses in managing workplace health and safety by providing a FREE and CONFIDENTIAL service offering practical advice and guidance from a reliable and trusted source which is tailored to the business owner’s needs.

HSWNI business advisers deliver this service throughout Northern Ireland from the offices in Belfast and Omagh.
