Abstract: | Part 1 of this article gives a background to the Machinery and Occupational Safety Act which replaces the old Factories Act of 1944. Part 2 is concerned with the practical implications for trade union organisation around health and safety in terms of the new structures introduced by this Act. It looks at the effects of the new safety representatives and safety committees. The article is followed by a model of a 'Health and Safety Agreement', p. 91-95. |
