Both employer and employee have responsibilities of housekeeping when it comes to the health and safety legislation. “It shall be the duty of every employer to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare at work of all his employees.”(Section 2 of HASWA) This states that the employer has a duty of providing a safe working atmosphere for their employees. Examples such as making sure the tools are in working order, knowing that employees have had proper training and that any faults in tools and equipment have been noted and had a risk assessment done on them.

With every research question and hypothesis that is presented, there are also a number of variables that can be linked to them in order to come to a conclusion. The variables in this case would be: what are the ages of the employees who made violations, the length of time the employees had been employed with the company when the violation occurred, which staff member(s) trained the employees, and under whose management did the violation occur? Understanding these variables will help narrow down whether the employee safety violations are a result of improper enforcement by a particular manager, inadequate training by designated trainers, or if the violations are a…
