This year’s Labour Research Department (LRD) Health and Safety Law 2022 is a new-look edition. It will feature a new structure and expanded index - making this best-selling health and safety legal guide even better and easier to use.

 

It is vital that safety reps have a good knowledge of health and safety law, including about their rights and employers’ obligations, to back them up as they take action to keep their members safe, whether they are returning to their workplace or working from home.

 

Covering all the latest developments in UK health and safety law, including changes to statutory regulations and new case law, as well as guidance from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and other official bodies, the TUC and individual unions. This includes the latest developments in, and union concerns about, health and safety law post-Brexit.

 

The handbook aims to provide safety reps and other trade union reps with a comprehensive guide to health and safety law and guidance as they work through the pandemic and beyond. It sets out the law using clear and practical language, explains the changes that have taken place since the last edition, and details any forthcoming changes in the year ahead.

 

Please bring the contents of this circular and the attached document to the attention of relevant members. 

 

Yours sincerely

 

 

Michael Lynch

General Secretary
