Great Britain is one of the safest places to work in the world. The standards of health and safety over the last five decades have improved significantly. A key part of this is how health and safety is both legislated and regulated. Health and safety law places legal duties to manage risk on both employers and those who have control over non-domestic premises made available as places of work. Fundamentally, these are set out under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 19741 but have since been expanded on by several Regulations. They are made to ensure that employees and those others who can be affected by an organisation undertaking are protected from harm so far as is reasonably practicable.
