What is the Gas Safe Register?

The Gas Safe Register is the official gas registration body for the UnitedKingdom, Isle of Man and Guernsey, appointed by the applicable Health and Safety Authority for each area. By law, all gas engineers must be on the Gas Safe Register, and the Register’s role is to act as a licensing body.

When a company becomes Gas Safe registered they are being issued a licence in order to carry out gas work (much as the DVLA issues driving licences to individuals who have demonstrated their competence by successfully passing a driving test). Consequently, the checks Gas Safe Register make prior to allowing enrollment only extend to making certain that those applying for, and holding, registration is suitably qualified as gas safety proficient. The Gas Safe Register is not a membership body for engineers, nor a trade association.

Gas Safe Register took the place of CORGI as the gas registration body in Great Britain and Isle of Man on 1 April 2009 and in Northern Ireland andGuernsey on 1 April 2010.

In the event that you require gas work performed in your commercial property or work environment, you can make use of the wide range of search options to find a registered business or check an engineer is registered and qualified for the task you need doing.

The Gas Safe Register is the official list of companies that are lawfully enabled to accomplish gas work. Every registered company who employs gas engineers is issued with Gas Safe ID cards. Not all engineers are qualified to perform all forms of gas work so remember to inspect their ID card long before any work is undertaken using a qualified professional, reliable and reputable facilities company, like BPS, who is going to only ensure the right and appropriately qualified gas engineer is dispatched to your commercial property.

If you believe someone is working on gas illegally, you have to report them to the Gas Safe Register who will then investigate.

There are in excess of 120,000 engineers on the Gas Safe Register and the Gas Safe Register inspects the work they’ve completed on an ad hoc basis to monitor their work is still compliant and safe. If you’ve had gas work performed in the last six months, you can nominate it for a free of charge gas safety inspection.

What does the Gas Safety Register do?

  • The Gas Safe Register investigates reports of illegal gas work. The related information they gather is turned over to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), who have the power to prosecute.
  • The Gas Safe Register conducts public awareness campaigns to ensure gas consumers aware of the risks of treacherous and unlawful gas work, and of various other dangers, for example, carbon monoxide gas (CO) poisoning. It is the coordinating body for the annual industry-wide Gas Safety Week campaign.
  • The Gas Safe Register is operated by Capita Gas Registration and Ancillary Services Limited, a division of Capita Plc

You should receive a Building Regulations Compliance Certificate if a Gas Safe registered engineer installs a heat generating gas appliance in your residential or commercial property. It’s effectively a method of advising the Local Authority of the new apparatus, and you should receive it in the post within 28 days of a new appliance being put in. If you need a duplicate Building Regulations Compliance Certificate you can do this online or get in touch with them on 0800 408 5500 and choose option 6. There is a fee for duplicate certificates.

What is the Purpose of the Gas Safety Register?

The Gas Safety Register aims to safeguard the public from harmful gas work, and they look to achieve this through:

  1. a national investigations team finding unlawful gas workers
  2. frequent inspections of Gas Safe registered engineers
  3. educating consumers and raising awareness of gas safety
  4. investigating reports of hazardous gas work

Gas Safety Records

The documentation an engineer leaves after having installed, serviced or safety checked a system is dependent upon the purpose and type of work carried out. The only paperwork required by legislation is a Landlord Gas Safety Record. It will detail precisely what checks the engineer has performed and if the appliances checked to satisfy the appropriate safety standards.
