Basically, all that is being said is that it is not on for an employer to abuse his / her work force in pursuit of profit. That means not exposing employees to hazards, including occupational stress. Occupational stress as a hazard is slowly being recognised. And rightly so.
HSE is a good thing. It is designed to protect the workforce from unscrupulous employers.
Dont you think that is a good thing Graham?
HSE isn't perfect, but then what is? It does need refining, but truly where would we be without it. Take it away and what have you got.......
