What is Legislation? The word legislation generally refers to a law that is made in Parliament and is often called an act. For our purposes, health and safety acts state what should and shouldn’t be done by employers and employees in order to keep work places safe. If an employer or an employee does something they shouldn’t, or just as importantly, doesn’t do something they should, they could face paying a large fine or even a prison sentence. 24/04/2017 John Williams
