Our health and safety responsibilities

All social housing landlords are required to appoint a designated health and safety lead. We have assigned this to Peter Francis, our head of HR, health and safety, corporate PR and communications.

The lead’s function is to:

  • monitor our compliance with housing health and safety requirements
  • assess our risk of failing to comply with the requirements
  • notify the Regulator of Social Housing of any risks or failures to comply
  • advise us how to address risk and failures to comply.

The health and safety lead is not:

  • responsible for our compliance with housing health and safety requirements
  • liable for a failure by us to comply with the requirements.

You can contact us if you have a concern about health and safety in your council home by emailing us on corporatesafety@dover.gov.uk.
