Health and safety legislation is in place to protect everyone, and as you can see poor health and safety is a growing problem and affects everyone.

Employers are now liable for health and safety accidents in the workplace. They are required to demonstrate that they have taken all reasonable steps to reduce or eliminate all accidents, this includes showing evidence that all staff are trained in any aspect of health and safety appropriate to their role. This insures them to be able to demonstrate due diligence.
