Rank: Super forum user		Just came across this while looking for something else: http://www.hse.gov.uk/le.../repeals-revocations.htm Looks as if wearing hard hats on construction sites is mandatory, according to HSE?

Im not sure that is strictly true. I thought it was the case that if there was a risk of head injury then it was mandatory they must be worn. HSE website guidance also concurs with the above. Happy to be proved wrong though.
