Who we are?
The Health and Safety Lawyers' Association (HSLA) is the professional association for prosecution and defence solicitors, barristers and lawyers who practice in and areas associated with health and safety law. We currently have over 650 members across the UK.
What we do
We run a comprehensive programme of events throughout the year and across the UK with the aim of sharing knowledge and good practice amongst our members.
Become a member
Our aims and objectives include: To act as thought leaders and shape the development of health and safety law and issues effecting the enforcement and court process associated with it. To further research and educate and train its members; and to promote the expertise of its members in dealing with issues of health and safety law.
How to join?
The subscription for HSLA membership is £65.00 per person. The HSLA membership year is the calendar year -- from January to December. There is no reduction for joining partway through the year because HSLA events are free to members or heavily subsidised by HSLA.
