Regulating Health and Safety at Work: An Agenda for Change?
By Phil James and David Walters
Published in December 2005
Over a million workers each year suffer an accident at work, more than two million people suffer an illness which they believe to have been caused by their work and more than 25,000 people leave the labour force each year as a result of work-related injury and illness. Such injury and ill health results in the annual loss of over 25 million working days. The estimated cost to the tax payer is over £58 billion in medical and social security costs. The cost to workers and their families is clearly socially and morally unacceptable.
Labour Migration and Employment Rights
Edited by Bernard Ryan
Published in October 2005
Migrant workers often enter the UK in the hope of finding a better life – the truth is often far from that. Migrant workers are denied social benefits and are offered very little protection in terms of employment rights while the destitution faced by unemployed migrants makes them more vulnerable to unscrupulous employers.
Still Challenging Disability Discrimination at Work
Sorry, we are now sold out of this book.
By Lydia Seymour and Andrew Short
Published in October 2005
This publication examines the impact and operation of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 in the 10 years since it passed through Parliament. It is fair to say that many concerns were expressed by unions and disability groups when the DDA was first introduced. Those concerns were recorded in the first edition of this booklet, published in 2000. That report also raised suggestions for improvements in the Act, many of which have now been addressed through amendments to the original Act.
