Gas Safe Register is the official stamp for gas safety and it carries with it a simple message; gas, safe, register – keep gas safe.

This powerful symbol is about gas safety and the meaning is clear. A Gas Safe registered engineer is safe to work with gas.

As well as being the identity for the register, Gas Safe Register will be used for a range of gas safety campaigns. Gas Safe Register will be held in trust by the Health and Safety Executive and will remain the official stamp for gas safety. There will always be a Gas Safe Register, and as long as you remain registered, you will always be a Gas Safe registered engineer.

Inspection and enforcementWe assess the competence of individual engineers by inspecting the gas work you have carried out. Inspections will be generated from a range of data sources. Each piece of work you carry out is a potential candidate for inspection.

All registered engineers and businesses have a risk profile that is made up of a range of factors. This will help us to target inspection resources where we anticipate finding work that might be considered of higher risk.

Along with building a comprehensive risk model, we are securing gas installation information from a range of sources. We will regularly feed the risk model with installation data and from a combination of both generate the work to inspect.

Our dedicated enforcement team will identify and pursue businesses and individuals that undertake gas work unregistered.
