Publications Archive
Over the years, the Department of Labour has issued health and safety publications on numerous subjects. Many of these were never updated to take account of changes in legislation, standards, technology or industry practice, and are no longer available in printed form. However, some of the information in these publications is still relevant and not available elsewhere.
The Publications Archive is intended as a repository of this older material. It also contains some earlier editions of current publications.
The Archive publications are all in pdf format and retain the look and feel of the original documents, although in some cases photographs or graphics have been removed to keep the file size to a minimum. The word ARCHIVE appears as a watermark on every page as a reminder of the publication's status.
