This guide to health, safety and environment legislation is divided into 17 sections, each of which is subdivided, with the relevant legislation easily identified within the sections. A list of contents and an index are also included. All material is current as of November 2002, and includes recently introduced legislation such as CHIP 3, GMOs (Deliberate Release), Control of Asbestos at Work, COSHH and Control of Lead at Work. This guide should be of interest to all employers and employees, but especially to those employed to advise their colleagues on health, safety and environmental law. It is therefore designed to be a first port-of-call for quick and easy access to reference information, which can readily be carried to meetings or taken out on site.
