Introduction to Health and Safety at Work has been specially developed for students during and after studying for the NEBOSH National General Certificate in Occupational Safety and Health. It has been designed to match the Certificate syllabus which was revised in June 2002.

It covers the essential elements of health and safety management, the legal framework, risk assessment and control standards. The final section is a valuable summary of the most commonly used Acts and Regulations. At the end of each chapter, there are some examination questions taken from recent NEBOSH National Certificate papers. The answers to these questions are to be found within the preceding chapter of the book.
