HSC urges use of free Health & Safety guide
The Health and Safety Executive is urging the use of a freely available guide entitled "Leading health and safety at work".
The guide was created under the guidance of the Confederation of British Industry (CBI), Federation of Small Businesses (FSB), Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH), Local Government Association (LGA), National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO), NHS Confederation, Trades Union Congress (TUC) and Warwick Law School, University of Warwick.
It's purpose is to offer a practical guide to health and safety in the workplace. The Head of HSE's Business Involvement Unit, Tony Bandle, commented:
We know that these are trying times for businesses, their suppliers and customers. Whilst it’s pleasing to see 25% of businesses know about this publication I would urge other industry leaders to take advantage of this free publication that is written by business people for business people.
You can download the guide here.
