40 years of safety reps


The TUC is to launch a campaign to mark 40 years since trade union health and safety representatives had a legal right under the 1977 Safety Representatives and Safety Committees Regulations to improve health and safety in the workplace. 


The campaign will celebrate the difference safety reps have made to workplaces up and down the country. It will also focus on the future, making the case for union involvement in health and safety over the coming 40 years.
