What The Law Says
There are various laws to consider when complying with your health and safety duties at work. You are not expected to know these verse for verse, but you are expected to comply with them, as you are with all other laws of the land.
The primary Act to comply with is The Health and Safety At Work etc. Act 1974. Innervision like to call this the umbrella Act. Then we have The Management of Health and Safety At Work Regulations 1999. The Health and Safety legislation is not exclusive to the above laws, and each discipline may have a corresponding law such as; Manual Handling, Working at Height and Work Equipment.
The primary function of The Health and Safety At Work Act is to set out the duties of employers and employees to help keep themselves and others safe.
The Management Regulations requires employers to:
understand 'how' to keep employees safe
- Safety First
The Management Regulations requires employers to understand ‘how’ to keep employees safe. Examples of ‘how’ in the regulation are:
- Carry out risk assessments
- Protect young workers
