All workers have a right to work in places where risks to their
 health and safety are properly controlled. The primary
 responsibility for this is down to the employer.
Both workers and employers have a legal responsibility to look
 after health and safety at work together.

Workers have a right to join and be represented by a trade union.
Workers who contribute to health and safety at work are safer and
 healthier than those who do not.
