Health and Safety at Work: Key Terms provides instant information to readers on a range of key terms used in health and safety at work.

As such, it will be of particular use to health and safety practitioners, those studying for degrees in occupational health and safety and courses run by NEBOSH, and those engaged in enforcement activities, such as Health and Safety Executive inspectors, environmental health officers and fire protection officers.
