Learning Outcome 1: Understand own responsibilities, and the responsibilities of others, relating to health
and safety in the work setting

1.1 Identify legislation relating to general health and safety in a care work setting

Legislation that relates to health and safety in a care work setting include:

 Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 – sets out the statutory roles and responsibilities for employers
and employees relating to health and safety
 Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013 – often
abbreviated to RIDDOR. More serious incidents and accidents must be reported to the Health & Safety
Executive (HSE)
 The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 – sets out how health and safety
in the workplace should be managed
 The Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992 – how loads should be supported and carried to
prevent or reduce the likelihood of injury
 Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 – often abbreviated to COSHH,

, against fire
 The Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 2002 – often abbreviated to PUWER, sets
out how work equipment should be used safely
 The Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 – often abbreviated to LOLER,
equipment that lifts or lowers loads has additional regulation
 The Personal Protective Equipment Regulations 2002 –Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

1.2 Outline the main points of the health and safety policies and procedures agreed with the employer

When I began work in the care sector, my employer provided me with agreed ways of working (policies and
procedures) which have set out rules regarding my actions and behaviour and processes that must be followed.

Some of these relate to health and safety in my workplace. I am expected to read, understand and follow the main
points of them.

Some examples of health and safety related to my agreed ways of working include:

 Health and safety policy – specify the responsibilities of the employer and employees
 Accident reporting procedure – process to follow to report an accident at work
 Hazard reporting procedure – process to follow to report a potential hazard in the workplace
 Use of equipment procedure/instructions – how a piece of equipment should be used safely and
correctly
 COSHH policy and procedure – how hazardous substances should be handled
 Fire/evacuation procedure – what to do if there is a fire
 Personal care procedure – how personal care should be carried out

a) Self
My responsibilities are to maintain any important care procedures, which refer to the policies and procedures, but

and safety responsibilities include other things such as making sure any activities are done safely, as well as the use
of any equipment or materials to be handled with care, minimizing the risk
b) Manager
 My employer's/manager’s duty of care in practice
 make the workplace safe
 prevent risks to health
 make sure that plant and machinery is safe to use
 make sure safe working practices are set up and followed

c) others in the work setting

 take reasonable care of their own health and safety and that of other persons
 ensure they do not cause injury to themselves or others by their acts and omissions (things that they do or fail
to do) co-operate with the employer.
