Inspection to focus on training
Article Abstract:
The UK Health and Safety Commission's Advisory Committee for the rubber industry (RUBIAC) has published two documents aimed at improving health and safety training in the rubber industry. The industry has a high accident rate and RUBIAC believes this could be due to poor training. One document presents the case for good training and sets out the employer's legal obligations. The other document includes training material to promote general understanding of safety systems and to accompany training in specific tasks.
