The Hazards magazine is the most authoritative and specialist magazine detailing Health & Safety at work issues and campaigns in the whole of the UK. It is world renowned for its quality and principled reporting and campaigning. This is especially true of its News section, given the demise of the TUC's Risk Newsletter, and the closing down of the CWU's Health, Safety, and Environment Dept leaving their USRs without a national officer in charge of H&S, and no one responsible for campaigning on H&S issues. As the UK's only organisation which supports USRs and promotes campaigns, and more importantly actual science-based facts regarding issue such as Air Pollution, Climate Change, Clean Air at work and in Schools, and in the wider environment, personal protective equipment in relation to traffic fumes, air-born hazards e.g. industrial waste, Covid and much more; it is imperative that enough funding is available to Hazards Campaign in order for it to continue. Unionsafety supports Hazards magazine and will focus on the work it is doing and on the H&S Campaigns it is involved with, e.g. FACK and TUCAN. Their quarterly magazine is akin to the 'USRs Bible' aka 'The Brown Book' which details the Safety Reps and Safety Committees Regulations 1978; not just in terms of support for the legislation, but on the everyday issues across all working environments, Union Safety Reps and safety specialists are having to deal; with climate change being the greatest threat. More importantly, it is also the only authoritative organisation calling out the HSE for its total lack of H&S enforcement, has totally independent editorial content and is edited by world renowned award winning journalist and professor with a background in science and occupational health - Rory O'Neill. Professor Rory O'Neill has worked for national TV and radio broadcasters in the UK and Denmark, national newspapers, trade union journals and specialist magazines, and has worked for international organisations including the International Labour Organisation and global labour unions, and done press work at events like the UN's Commission for Sustainable Development. He is health, safety and labour standards adviser to the Brussels-based International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC). He is a professor at Queen Mary University of London Department of Law specialising in occupational health and social justice, having previously been professor of occupational health at Liverpool University School of Law and Stirling University's Occupational Health, Safety and Environmental Policy Research Group, where he remains a member of the research group. With such an illustrious record, readers of Hazards Magazine can be sure they are reading authentic and authoritative news and articles that matter to all working people across the globe.
