The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999

The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 (the Management Regulations) are important because they clarify how employers must comply with their duties under the Health and Safety at Work Act (Chapter 1). The regulations originate from the European Framework Directive 1989 (89/391/EEC).
