Corporate Manslaughter sentencing guidelines have been finalised and publishes.

Initially the Sentencing Advisory Panel (SAP) issued recommendations that in cases of Corporate Manslaughter the penalties should be £500,000 and in most cases 2.5-10% of turnover based on gross turnover for the previous 3 year period..

This has been rejected by the Sentencing Guidelines Council (SGC) on the grounds that it would be un infoceable especially in the 3rd Sector.

The SGC has now said fines imposed should very rarely fall below the £500,000 threshold and could be in the £m.

As well as the £500,000 Corporate Manslaughter guide there will be a publicity order placed on companies making it compulsory to notify the press and other Media of sentence. Non compliance with this order will result in further Court action and fines.

This has been broadly welcomed by IOSH but it seems from their statements they were hoping for the former.

Guidelines have also been issued for Death caused by Health and Safety breaches which as the SGC say should rarely fall below £100,000 and in most cases should be hundreds of £000 and more.

For more information call us.
