Health & Safety Newsletter
Since November 1998 the health and safety enforcement team at Charnwood Borough Council have been producing a newsletter. The purpose of the newsletter is to help keep employers, and especially small businesses, informed of current health and safety issues, new publications, other sources of information and the requirements of legislation, at the same time highlighting issues which are currently considered by the Health and Safety Commission (HSC) to be of priority importance because they are causing most accidents or ill health at work, such as slips and trips, workplace transport and stress.
The last newsletter came out in January 2005 and the next newsletter is due to be distributed in Septemeber 2006. If you have not received a copy of the last newsletter and would like to have one then please contact us.
