Health and Safety at Work Act
In 1974, the British government passed the Health and Safety at Work Act to provide robust legislation around the health, safety and welfare of people at work in the UK. This poster uses images of a fall and machine accident to encourage people to undertake first aid training and equip themselves with the ability to provide emergency care if an accident occurs in the workplace.
