Chapter 10

Non-mobile transport and offshore workers

[ch 10: page 198]

Following a series of amendments, groups that were previously excluded from the WTR are now included. The UK regulations now include “non-mobile workers” in most of the previously “excluded” sectors, such as air, road and rail transport and offshore work. This means, for example, that clerical workers in these sectors are now fully covered.
