'This comprehensive and authoritative guide is instantly readable. Its compact format, comfortable print size and excellent layout of a notably lucid text, make it an uncommonly accessible aid to understanding and complying with health and safety law for all involved with the construction industry.' - "Occupational Safety & Health". Health and safety legislation is a fundamental part of any successful construction project, in much the same way as are the designs, equipment and materials. Unfortunately, all too often health and safety law is dismissed as 'someone else's responsibility' or is considered a subject too complex to bother with. If you are charged with implementing the vast array of health and safety legislation and guidance, one of your most difficult tasks will be finding it in the first place."Health and Safety Law for the Construction Industry" has been specifically written to provide you with a manageable guide to the subject by identifying, through reference to particular topics, the principal sources of legislation and present a summary of the main requirements in each area.
Unlike other publications, available, Health and safety law for the construction industry is not a heavy tome on health and safety legislation, but it is a practical step-by-step guide which explains the responsibilities that every construction employer, self-employed person, or site occupier faces on a regular basis and removes some of the complexity and mystery that can surround legislation.Essential information is provided in the form of easy-to-read checklists and bullet points which can be used as a ready reckoner during the planning stages and as a quick reference guide during construction. In one handy volume, the book outlines the regulations which apply to a construction project at each of its stages, the conditions under which they apply, the duties they demand, notifications which are appropriate and the required methods of compliance.
