Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 - Section 7

Health and Safety Angels

We're back! The past 2 episodes were special episodes which we hope you loved listening to but now you have got your angels in the hot seats again.

This episode is moving on to section 7 of the HSAWA'74. As we've had a little gap in recording together... we ended up having a major chat about current topics and past incidents so it took 28 mins to get the section 7 but the chat is pretty informative so we won't apologise :) Lynsey also sends her apologies to anyone in Wales who is shocked at her tiny knowledge of how to say Welsh town names!!

Section 7....This is where the employee gets duties!!

It shall be the duty of every employee while at work—

(a) to take reasonable care for the health and safety of himself and of other persons who may be affected by his acts or omissions at work; and

(b) as regards any duty or requirement imposed on his employer or any other person by or under any of the relevant statutory provisions, to co-operate with him so far as is necessary to enable that duty or requirement to be performed or complied with

We hope you enjoy hanging out with us on this episode and remember, if you haven't already, follow us on instagram on healthandsafety.angels
