Are there any health and safety regulations specific to HMOs?

Various health and safety regulations cover areas such as: • maintaining shared areas; • electrical safety; • gas safety; and • safe working practices. HMOs must be fit for the number of people who live there. Landlords must make sure that the fire-safety standards are met. If they are not, tenants, or anyone else who is affected, may take action against the landlord. You can get free information leaflets about the above from the Health and Safety Executive.
