The legal rights of union safety representatives are spelled out in the The Safety Representatives and Safety Committees Regulations 1977(SI 1977 No 500), known as the 'Brown Book' - the one-stop source for the regulations, code of practice and guidance on safety representatives. The TUC has produced a version of this essential reference guide for training purposes, now available online for the first time.
