Hazards at work
The TUC has published a new edition of Hazards at Work.
The book explains the way unions organise to improve health, safety and welfare, and gives details of key legal provisions and how they are enforced.
There is also a whole new section on people in “vulnerable” categories, such as young workers, shift workers, agency workers and disabled workers.
Hazards can be ordered online at: www.tuc.org.uk/publications/viewPub.cfm?frmPubID=658
