Editorial Reviews
Synopsis
This is a major revision of this popular book. It is aimed at owners of small businesses and attempts to increase awareness of hazards in the workplace and how to avoid them. The revision takes account of many important new regulations which have come into effect eg the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 1988 (COSHH), the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, and the "six pack" of regulations which implement the new EC Directives on health and safety at work. The first part of the book suggests a systematic approach to health and safety using risk assessment, while the second part deals with particular topics under the five main groupings of premises, plant and machinery, substances, procedures, and people. There is also a references section.
