Health & Safety Toolkit & Blue Star Good Practice Examples

Health & Safety Toolkit
The Health and Safety Toolkit is intended to be a means of identifying the many good practices, innovations and ideas which contribute positively to health and safety. This includes all ideas already being put into practice on the National Highways network, as well as those which could potentially be transferred / implemented.
 
Submitted ideas should be original and supported by a relevant highways based case study displaying clear benefits (NOT just supplier marketing material)

​Please submit your case studies to highwayssafetyhub@gmail.com
