Synopsis

The first edition of Health and Safety Enforcement Law and Practice became the standard text for practitioners in this area of the law, providing a portable and authoritative guide to the key issues. It combined a practical and comprehensive narrative with copies of all relevant materials. The new edition builds on the strengths of the first, combining a hard-edged examination of substantive law with practical procedural guidance. It deals comprehensively with health and safety inspectors' enforcement powers; the service and appeal of improvement and prohibition notices; the law relating to health and safety offences; work-related death investigation; the Coroner's procedure; and relevant criminal procedure and sentencing.
