Dear All,

Recently the HSE made a 'recommendation' to one of our clients, we have had to determine the viability thereof. I am interested if any of you have dealt with HSE Contract Research reports in the past, and if so, could you help with the following:

Do the HSE publicise the Contract Research Reports in any way, other than via the website ?
Without visiting the website, how would specific industries know that these Contract Research Reports exist ?
Some reports were first published in 1987. Were they available from the website in 1987 ? If not, how would you obtain a copy ?

Any insights into this would be appreciated.

Echoing Allan's sentiments, I hope you all have a warm xmas and a safe and prosperous 2005.

Regards

Rakesh

Rakesh.

As you rightly state, some reports are available on the HSE web site - other are not.

I am not aware of a complete list of reports being available, but most of the health and safety information providers, barbour index and Technical indices have copies of reports available on thier site - at a price, being membership or day rates (if they offer these).

The other opportunity to access such sites (for example) is if undertaking a University course and gaining access using a student 'Athens' name and password provided by the University.

Perhaps others can offer some insight...

Hi if you use the address below you will get a list of Contract Research Reports in batches, clicking on one of them will list the contract research reports in that batch.
Almost all are downloadable from the net.

Hope this helps
Peter.

Rakesh,

I left university in 1996 and at that time the HSE used to publish lists of contract reports, which were included in such publications as the Health and Safety Bulletin ("HSB").

I used to then telephone or write to (if I remember correctly) HSE Books and prior to that the HSE's publication office to obtain full copies of the reports.

I hope this helps.
