Reviews

"This excellent publication, which is full of diagrams and tables (and written in a somewhat idiosyncratic way - and none the worse for that) is a mine of information, especially for those who have only ever read about the CDM Regs from the construction worker's viewpoint." (RoSPA Occupational Safety & Health Journal, 1 March 2011)
