Health & safety - HSE Monitor

New chemical guidance

THE HSE has put information and links on chemical safety in one place on its website. HSE said the page provides a simple signpost and direct link to the different parts of the website covering health and safety in chemical manufacturing, marketing and supply, carriage or use of chemicals, as well as latest news. It includes a link to the government response to the recent investigation report into the Buncefield explosion in 2005.
