  £35.00
Written against the backdrop of increasing fines for health and safety offences against companies and individuals, this guide provides straightforward advice on how to prevent or deal with health and safety prosecutions in a practical manner.



A guide to health and safety prosecutions provides valuable information on enforcement, investigations by the police and Health and Safety Executive, inquests, funding and how a case progresses through the criminal courts. It also includes detailed information about the issues that an organisation needs to consider when faced with an investigation. There is an extensive chapter explaining the sentencing process for convicted individuals and companies that also details the current trends in this area.



The book covers manslaughter prosecutions of individuals and companies along with an analysis and explanation of the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Bill.
