Business - registering premises

Business premises are required to be registered with the local authority. Following an application an Officer will visit premises to check they meet health and safety guidelines and conform with local Byelaws. Premises will be inspected on a regular basis.

The Offices, Shops and Railway Premises Act 1963 (OSRPA) aims to secure the health, safety and welfare of people employed to work in offices, shops and certain railway premises. If an employer intends to employ anyone to work in an office or shop, they are required by section 49 of the Act to notify the appropriate enforcing authority beforehand. They must provide specific details as laid down in the Notification of Employment of Persons Order 1964 (SI 1964/533). This is done by completing form OSR1. Failure to comply with this requirement is an offence.
