HEALTH AND SAFETY FRAMEWORK. This agreement supplements, but does not replace the Health and Safety policies and procedures of the Party organisations. This agreement in no way dilutes or undermines the statutory duties of each of the Party organisations. The aim of the local agreement is to ensure that whilst the statutory duties of Health and Safety are met by the Party organisations, they work together in an integrated manner wherever possible and appropriate to assess and manage the risks to the Health and Safety of their staff and others who may be affected by work activities. The general principles that will be adopted are: · Any Health and Safety matters relating to premises are dealt with under the policies of the main tenant of those premises. · Any matters relating to staff are dealt with according to their employer’s policies. · Managers will be responsible for risk assessment and management in line with these principles, for integrated teams.
