<p>The table below shows the number of inspections, by year and by sector, carried
out by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) for each financial year since 2017. HSE’s
data deletion policy only allows for retention of detailed inspection data for up
to 7 years, therefore data before 2017 can be found on <a href="https://www.gov.uk/search/transparency-and-freedom-of-information-releases?parent=health-and-safety-executive&organisations%5B%5D=health-and-safety-executive&order=updated-oldest"
target="_blank">Gov.uk</a> website.</p><p> </p><p>The figures below are based on raw
live data and can be subject to change due to updates to historical cases. Therefore
these figures may differ to the figures published in the Annual Reports.</p><p> </p><p>‘Sector’
as used in this table is a term used by HSE internally and is a categorisation of
the main economic activity of a workplace. The figures below include inspections to
major hazard sites. A breakdown by sector is not always published in the Annual Reports
as the focus will be on the respective priorities of business plan for that work year.</p><p><br></p><table><tbody><tr><td
