STFC SHE Codes

The STFC SHE Management System is supported by around 40 SHE codes that define how workplace hazards are managed and the required standards of control. Based on legislation, these codes implement the UKRI Health & Safety Management System and provide clear guidance for staff, users, and contractors; queries should be directed to the relevant SHE Code Lead or local SHE advisor.
