Robens: A missed opportunity? Available to Purchase

After two years' study, the Robens Committee on Safety and Health at Work has reported its findings. Its terms of reference required it to examine the existing statutory provisions and to recommend any changes it regarded as necessary in relation to two sets of people: employees in general and the public in so far as work‐based hazards affect them. The subject of general environmental pollution was expressly excluded, presumably because the Ashby Commission was set up to deal with the matter.
