HSE National Policy

Red Weather Event Policy


Topic: Red weather
Document Owner: Chief people officer
National Group: National employee relations
Effective From: 01 November 2019
This policy covers all HSE and Section 38 employees during Red Weather events. This HSE national policy is intended to apply in circumstances where Red Weather events occur

The provision of services is dependent on having employees to deliver them. Accordingly all employees are expected to make every effort to report for duty on time and remain on duty for their rostered period. However staff should always assess the risks involved in travelling to work before setting off on their journey. If an employee believes it is unsafe to travel s/he should contact his/her line manager or designate to discuss the situation.
