Regulation 12: Information, instruction and training

The ACoP says, "An employer who undertakes work which may expose any of his employees to substances hazardous to health shall provide that employee with such information, instruction and training as is suitable and sufficient for him to know (a) the risks to health created by such exposure and (b) the precautions which should be taken.

This includes the results of any monitoring and the Regulation requires workers and safety reps to be informed if Maximum Exposure Limits have been exceeded.
