Abstract:The area of occupational health and safety is a contested one. Over the past few years there have been a number of different struggles over hazardous working conditions, in which parties are involved: the state, capital and organised labour. This article concentrates on the response of the emerging trade union movement. It is divided into two parts: the first looks at health and safety in a general way in order to isolate certain guidelines. The second draws on concrete struggles in order to illustrate some of these guidelines. Notes.
