| Abstract |
This is the first of four technical ACOPs and guidance supporting DSEAR and is concerned with protection against risks from fire, explosion and similar events arising from dangerous substances used or present in the workplace. It sets minimum requirements for the protection of workets from fire and explosion risks related to dangerous substances and potentially explosive atmospheres. The Regulations apply to employers and the self-employed at most workplaces in Great Britain where a dangerous substance is present or could be present. DSEAR revokes, repeals or modifies a large amount of old legislation relating to flammable substances and dusts. Contents: Preface; Notice of approval; Introduction; Regulation 5 - assessment of the risks; Regulation 6 (and Schedule 1) - elimination or reduction of risks from dangerous substances; References and further reading. |
