Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).
9 of the 74 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 65 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 2 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 120 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): the median, minimum and maximum PUBLISHED fee per scope (DSEAR risk assessment alone; assessment plus hazardous area classification; the explosion protection document; the annual review; dust laboratory testing; training), per site-complexity band, computed across every UK consultancy that publishes a number - and beside it the figure that is this market's real story: the SHARE of DSEAR consultancies that publish any price at all.
Of the consultancy pages read in the harvest, the great majority route to a quote form, and the handful that publish disagree by a factor of forty on the same statutory duty: Securitas 'from just GBP350', Safety Group 'from GBP400 + VAT', dsear-assessment.co.uk 'from GBP750', Direct Risk Solutions a flat 'GBP995 + vat', OTECSA 'GBP1,500 to GBP3,500' for a simple site, and York Green 'GBP3,000 to GBP15,000+' for what it describes as the same service.
The index also records the two prices that ARE fixed and public - HSE's own DSEAR courses at GBP735 per person and the FFI hourly rate the regulator charges when it finds the assessment missing - so a buyer can see the cost of the assessment beside the cost of not having one
120 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
