Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation
Role and Operation of the Health and Safety Authority: Discussion
9:30 am
Mr. Mark Cullen:
It would be fair to say there is a high level of co-operation because safety is everybody's business, and we certainly do not want a regulator coming in and then an organisation ignoring its advice. That would be to our disadvantage for obvious reasons. We see positive engagement with all employers. Of course, as Mr. O'Brien said, there are some that may resist but the vast majority work with us and are prepared to listen to us and work with the directions we give them.
