What are the 4 main objectives of HASAWA?

The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 (HASAWA) has four main objectives: to ensure the health, safety, and welfare of employees at work; to protect others who may be affected by work activities, such as the public and contractors; to promote a safe working environment through effective risk management; and to encourage employers and employees to collaborate on health and safety matters. This legislation establishes a framework for managing workplace safety and emphasizes the shared responsibility between employers and employees.
