Overview

The Health and Safety Executive awarded RSK ADAS LIMITED a contract worth £7,693,537 on 24 March 2026 to conduct the Pesticide Usage Survey (PUS), a voluntary post-approval monitoring programme that collects pesticide usage data from users across different crop and amenity sectors in the UK to inform policy, regulatory decisions, and international reporting obligations.
