‘The Sentencing Guidelines for Organisations: Breach of duty of employer towards employees and non-employees / Breach of duty of self-employed to others / Breach of Health and Safety Regulations[1] were made effective from 1 February 2016.

This article looks at how the sentencing guidelines should be applied differently for public bodies.’
