The increasing number of EC directives being implemented in the UK have placed new responsibilities on firms for implementing safety standards in the workplace. This handbook aims to enable managers to take measures to suit their own workplace in order to reduce the risk of prosecution. The book offers details and language on how to design health and safety management systems. It shows how to draft and implement policies and risk assessment programmes, and provides a practical guide to the key legal requirements.
