HHSEG aim to be the recognised focal point for high quality, low-cost mutual assistance, education and training in health, safety and environmental protection for local businesses. The Group was established in 1963 under the name of “The East Hants Health and Safety Group” and brought about at the instigation of Mr Robert Moffett, the then H.M. District Inspector of Factories; located at Kings Road, Southsea in conjunction with local and regional organisations and businesses. The name of the group was changed in 1997 to The Hampshire Health Safety and Environmental Group in order to better reflect the geographical placing of the member companies and the inclusion of the environment into our title expressing the increasing importance of its protection in the workplaces. In our endeavours for future success we remember our beginnings and recognise the splendid work and achievements of past committees for it from their management and development. We are now one of the largest and most successful health and safety groups in the country. Today in its operation, the group continues to successfully provide a networking facility with up to date information, knowledge and expertise along with practical advice and assistance across the full health and safety spectrum, which includes environmental and welfare issues.
