If you are a provider of adventure activities such as
bungy jumping, scuba diving and canyoning you are required to
notify the Department of Labour of certain information about your
business by 30 April 2011.
The new Health & Safety in Employment Regulations 2011 will
make it an offence to provide adventure activities without being
registered after 1 November 2014. In order to be registered you
will have to successfully complete a safety audit and pay a
registration fee. The first step in this process is notification by
30 April 2011 for existing businesses. Any new providers must
notify the Department of Labour before commencing business.
To find out if your business is caught by these regulations
