The Management of Health and Safety at Work: Approved Code of Practice (ACoP) came into force on 1 January 2026.
The Management ACoP applies to every business, workplace and work activity in Jersey.
The ACoP does not impose any new duties. It is specifically designed to help those with existing duties under the Health and Safety at Work (Jersey) Law 1989 better understand what the law requires them to do.
It provides authoritative guidance on how to use the framework of the law, along with other ACoPs, industry guidance and GB HSE guidance to proactively manage work related health and safety risks in order to minimise the risk of harm to workers and the public.
