Reporting Accidents, Working Time Regulations & Zero Tolerance 

Clarion Events investigate all accidents and ‘near misses’ that occur on-site, and we expect the co-operation of the exhibitors and contractors in investigating the true causes of any accident to try and prevent re-occurrence. Therefore, all incidents and near misses MUST be reported to the organiser. You can do this at either of the organiser’s offices located in S4 (lower) and N4 (lower). If you do see anyone taking unnecessary risks, please report it immediately.

All contractors are required to comply with the RIDDOR Regulations 1995.

All exhibitors should ensure that all staff (their own and those of any company contracted by them) are aware and adhere to the Working Time Regulations. Guidance regarding these regulations can be found on the HSE website:

Clarion Events strongly discourages late working. You must ensure your stand can be built to the timings provided in this manual. If you must work late, there will be a charge of £750 per hour, per stand chargeable to the Exhibitor or stand contractor.

Clarion Events operates a strict zero tolerance policy to the abuse of alcohol, drugs, and other substances. Any person found to be under the influence, which in the opinion of the organiser and their representatives constitutes a compromise to safety to themselves or any other person using the venue, will be removed from the venue and if necessary further action will be taken. The consumption of alcohol is not permitted onsite during the build-up/breakdown phases. Repeated breaking of safety rules will result in your removal from the Exhibition Hall.
