The Electricity at Work Regulations (1989) are intended to control the risks arising from the use of electricity at work. All those places of work covered by the Health and Safety at Work Act(shops, offices, factories,workshops, farms, garages, etc.) are also covered under these Regulations.

The Regulations specify that responsibility for safety rests with the 'duty holder', who may be an employer, or a self-employed person who employs one or more individuals under a contract of employment. This 'duty holder' has a responsibility to assess those work activities which utilises electricity, or which may be affected by it.
