[quote author=L.Spark link=1111009360/0#7 date=1111851725]now aside from what PW says, someone tells me that EAWR only applies for places with over 10 persons working, and not for self employed, having read EAWR I can't see that anywhere, do you know anymore? [/quote]
Also, and I note that Jim "Il Duce" Franklin didn't explicitly say this, the EAWR (which can be found here:
http://www.hmso.gov.uk/si/si1989/Uksi_19890635_en_1.htm ) is, just like the Building Regulations, full of generalisations about safety and competence, without giving any strict definition of those terms, and, again just like the Building Regulations, nowhere does it state a requirement to adhere to BS7671.
