HSE RIDDOR Consultation Update


HSE RIDDOR Consultation Update

4 June 2026

HSE RIDDOR Consultation Update. Reporting Requirements, Proposed Changes, and What to Expect Next

As the regulatory framework for workplace incident reporting continues to develop, ensuring your organisation remains aligned with the latest HSE guidance is essential.

This member-exclusive webinar provides a comprehensive update on the current HSE consultation on the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations (RIDDOR), including proposed amendments to reporting thresholds, scope changes, and the practical implications for duty holders across sectors.

We will also examine how proposed changes may affect existing internal reporting processes, what the consultation signals about HSE’s enforcement priorities, and how organisations should prepare for any transitional requirements as the consultation outcome moves toward implementation.

 

Key topics include:

  • Overview of the HSE RIDDOR consultation: background, scope, and key proposals under review
  • Proposed changes to reportable incidents, injuries, and dangerous occurrences: what is changing and why
  • Amendments to over-seven-day injury reporting and near-miss categories: thresholds, definitions, and practical impact
  • How the consultation addresses emerging workplace risks, including those arising from new working practices and technologies
  • Divergence considerations for organisations operating across GB and Northern Ireland jurisdictions
  • Steps organisations should take now to review and update their RIDDOR reporting procedures
  • Q&A and discussion of member priorities and challenges

This session is designed to equip health and safety professionals, compliance teams, and HR leads with the knowledge needed to understand the consultation proposals, respond effectively, and ensure continued compliance with incident reporting obligations.
