What is an Exposure Register and why is it important?
An Exposure Register is a required record that documents employees who are, or may be, exposed to health-hazardous conditions at work, a responsibility contractors and large subcontractors carry as employers across construction projects and over time. Because exposure-related health effects can appear years later, this data must remain accurate, traceable, and accessible long after a project ends.
A digital exposure register helps contractors maintain long-term control of employee exposure data in one structured and reliable system across projects, roles and years.
