Health and Safety Legislation

Health and safety legislation in the UK is designed to ensure the safety, welfare, and well-being of employees and the general public.
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 serves as the primary legislation, outlining the responsibilities of employers, employees, and others involved in the workplace.
It requires employers to provide a safe working environment, assess risks, implement control measures, and provide information, training, and supervision.
Additional regulations cover specific areas such as manual handling, hazardous substances, workplace ergonomics, and fire safety.
Compliance with health and safety legislation is essential to prevent accidents, injuries, and occupational illnesses in the workplace.

@@Galtoncollege that's just typical of TH-cam to stick rubbish in the middle of informative programs. Theyll let people watch crap without let, yet, want to learn something the stack up the rubbish that interrupts the lectures.

Does uk health and safety cover “mental health illness” caused by work issues ?

[@Galtoncollege]

Not directly and certainly not in a definitive or diagnostic (medical) manner. Its purpose is to discuss the topic within a business setting, examine the business related issues. You posed a good question but we think there may be other sites more focused and informative on this issue.
Overall we are delighted that you visited us and we are sorry that we can't specifically address this issue. We hope you will visit more of our business classes and help us with further feedback.
Regards.
