Abstract

Explains the health and safety directives and regulations and suggests the kinds of action that employers should be taking to ensure compliance. Suggests that the increased pace of modern office work puts health and safety in the office on management′s agenda, and points out that the employer is obliged to keep up to date with the state of the art to achieve the objectives of the directive.

Explains the most important regulations, discusses key issues and provides brief management checklists.
