Ideology and Safety Representative Training — An Exploratory Study
Abstract
In 1972, the broad findings of the Committee of Enquiry into Safety and Health at Work, chaired by Lord Robens, recommended a different approach to health and safety from the previous system of ever increasing, detailed statutory regulation monitored by external agencies such as the Factory Inspectorate. An improved system was felt to be one which was based on self regulation by employers and work people jointly, the implication being that references to, and reliance upon, external agencies would reduce. The requirement for a change in attitude to health and safety was identified as being essential for this approach to succeed.
