In the UK the management of OH&S at Work Regulations, 1999, which covers the management of risks, is an example of legislation that employers must comply with. Organisations with five or more employees have to carry out OH&S risk assessments and document their findings. Increasingly, stringent legislation, the development of economic policies, human resources management and other measures are used to foster OH&S protection and welfare.
