Posted By Silla Hi all, Quick question: when looking for information related to Health and Safety (general information, new processes, software, ideas, tools, equipment) where do you go? Is it a case of going to Google or are there good sources of information out there? I am asking because I have been having trouble sifting through the millions of pages of info for this and that and the other. All tips are much appreciated.

Posted By David J Bristow Hi Silla Google is a good start, however, if you connect to the IOSH forum regularly, many web site addresses are given in postings. If there are any interesting ones I paste them into a folder on my desktop for future use. I am not very good at finding info on internet (frightened I may download something I shouldn’t) so any help I can get is most welcome. Hope this helps – not impressed with JJ’s reply though – thought we were to help and assist fellow professionals. Regards David B
