Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 - Section 36 & 37 - Interview with a Health and Safety Lawyer!
Welcome to episode 14! They are flying out now and we've had so much feedback from you lovely listeners as we work our way through the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974.
This awesome episode features the fabulous Mary Lawrence, a H&S Lawyer/Partner with the firm Osbourne Clarke and we discuss all things prosecution related especially focusing on Section 37 of the HASAWA. She has some excellent advice for businesses in terms of being prepared if you find yourselves in the position of needing legal help but also, how individual prosecutions work as it isn't just the business that is at risk if things go wrong, individuals can also find themselves in court for failings to carry out individual duties that lead to a work place incident.
As always, we hope you enjoy listening to this episode and we can assure you, everyone can take something away from this chat!
Stay safe,
Daisy & Lynsey xx
