A new committee to provide independent expert knowledge and advice on workplace health has been appointed by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).

The workplace health expert committee (WHEC) will be made up of nine members who will provide expert opinion on emerging issues and trends, new evidence relating to existing issues and on the quality and relevance of the evidence base on workplace health issues.

The committee will encourage collaborative working with stakeholders and partners whilst helping to identify issues of potential concern to Government Departments and business.
