Health & Safety - Myth of the month

Every month the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) produce a "Myth of the Month" newletter where they dispell many urban myths that circulate about the HSE.  These often arise from ill-considered and over protective actions from the persons responsible for health and safety in organisations or at events, rather than from the HSE itself.

Managing risk is about practical steps to protect people from real harm and suffering - not bureaucratic back covering.
