520 _aDiscusses the HSC's draft code designed to help directors effectively manage health and safety issues in their organisations. Published on 17 January, the code will apply to senior management board in the public sector, and the board of directors in incorporated bodies. Provides details of the five key action points for directors set out in the code. These emphasize to directors the importance of promoting health and safety issues, and taking them into account when making decisions about their organisations. Notes that although the document is described as a 'code', its status is that of guidance, rather than a more important Approved Code of Practice. "Health and safety responsibilities of directors" is available free of charge from HSE Books.
