	Building Regulation Health and Safety
	Order Code: BR050EP ISBN Number: 1860814751 Publisher: BRE Press No. of Pages: 150 Date of Publication: 2001 Price: £47.50
Provides a basis for targeting development of the Building Regulations, the Housing Fitness Standard (HFS), and its successor, the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS). The emphasis is on regulation in general, rather than specific legislation or guidance. The report has two key elements: summarising the evidence for the impact of buildings on human health and safety, including fire safety; and assessing the relative importance of the various hazards in buildings, by applying the same risk assessment method to all.
