Health and Safety Law 2024
In its guidance on glysophate, the key ingredient in a powerful herbicide, or weedkiller, most commonly known as Roundup, but also known as Accord, Rodeo, Touchdown and Rosate, the GMB general union says members at potential risk include parks staff, agricultural workers, gardeners, and some forestry workers. And it points out: “It is not only those who spraying the weedkiller who may be at risk, but also those working around them when the herbicide is being applied.”
