People at Risk

When considering hazards at work and ways of minimising risk, you must always think about any other people who may be affected by your actions. There are legal requirements and duties for you to do so. These arise from the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Codes of Practice that have followed from it. There are a number of people who are at risk. Select the buttons below to find out more about each of the categories.
