The Health & Safety Executive and The Council for Registered Gas Installers (CORGI) jointly undertook an awareness campaign about the dangers of Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning in February 2005. As part of the campaign CORGI & HSE ran a live webchat featuring Brian Adams from CORGI and Dr Rob Hicks.
All gas installation businesses, including self-employed gas installers, are required to be in membership of a a ‘class of persons’ approved by HSE. The only body with such approval is the Council for Registered Gas Installers – CORGI. Gas fitters who are employed by a member of CORGI need not be in membership in their own right.
