What happens if you don't follow hasawa?

If you don't follow the Health and Safety at Work Act (HASAWA), you may face legal consequences, including fines or prosecution. Employers could be held liable for workplace accidents and injuries, leading to potential civil claims from affected employees. Non-compliance can also result in increased risks to employee health and safety, which can harm morale and productivity. Ultimately, failing to adhere to HASAWA undermines the legal framework designed to protect workers and ensure safe working conditions.
