The UK has introduced several pieces of legislation relevant to CSR. Which legislation ensures that employers keep their workers safe?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract of Documents:
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 requires UK employers to ensure that working conditions are safe and that risks to health are managed. According to the L5M5 study guide (p.6), this includes duties such as accident prevention, safe use of equipment, and training employees. While the Working Time Regulations (A) relate to working hours, the Companies Act (B) covers corporate governance, and the Disability Discrimination Act (D) focuses on preventing discrimination, only the Health and Safety at Work Act specifically ensures safe conditions. Procurement professionals must be aware of this when selecting and monitoring suppliers, particularly in high-risk industries.
