Hazardous substances
The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH)
Regulations 2002 were introduced to control exposure to all
substances hazardous to health arising from work
activities.
The council usually has responsibility for ensuring that these
regulations are adhered to by catering establishments, offices and
shops. The HSE (www.hse.gov.uk) is generally responsible for
manufacturing premises.
