Add a class to existing High risk work licence

Application to add a class of work to a high risk work licence (HRWL).

Add a class 

You can add multiple classes to your HRWL at the same time. Adding a class does not extend your expiry date. Check your licence is valid before you submit a request to add a class, as you may need to renew your licence first.
