There are some regulations which deal with specific types of hazard. Two examples are the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (COSHH) and its 2003 amendment, and the Control of Asbestos at Work Regulations 2006. There are HSE approved codes of practice for both these regulations. The Noise at Work Regulations 1989 require employers to assess the noise levels and to take appropriate action, e.g. provide operatives with hearing protectors. Employers need to understand fully the requirements of such regulations when they plan to undertake work that might involve their workforce coming into contact with hazardous materials or conditions. This applies to both on and offshore working.© IRATA InternationalPart 4: page 6 of 82013-Dec-01IRATA International code of practice for industrial rope access Part 4 of 5: Local legislation: United Kingdom4.2.11
