ISTC resources

Community union ISTC has produced some new resources to help its members with safety at work.

The union has produced two bookmarks for young workers, one outlining the special measures employers must take when employing anyone between 16 and 17 years of age, and the other setting out how the new Working Time Regulations affect young workers.

On serious and imminent danger, the ISTC has produced credit card sized cards outlining the circumstances in which members can stop the job.
