Responsible Research - Managing Health and Safety in Research

24 July 2025
UCEA and the Universities Safety and Health Association (USHA) have worked with the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) to review and update their guidance on Responsible research, originally published in 2012.  The guidance aims to support Heads of Departments, Principal Investigators and Researchers to ensure good health and safety performance in a research environment.  Covering a wide range of research fields, the guidance provides:

  • Examples of responsibilities and approaches;
  • Advice on safety culture and risk assessment; and
  • Case studies highlighting key issues that need to be considered and best practice in the HE sector.
