The legal spects and recommendations for health surveillance regarding latex
can be found by following the link below to HSE's advisory website.

would it be possible for me to have a copy of the policy too,
and any others anyone would like to share, one of our PCT's had recently had
a HSE inspection and one of the comments was that anyone using Latex should
have health surveillance. obviously we screen at pre emp and have a robust
system for anyone reporting any type of sensitivity etc, does anyone know
any more about this?

Tracy,
following our HSE improvement notice 12months ago regarding latex, our
policy was reviewed by the Trust and approved by the HSE at the time.
I would be happy to email you a copy if this would be helpful?

Does anyone have a Latex, Noise or Vibration policy they would be willing
to share with me please? It would be especially useful if they were from
another NHS Trust but all assistance would be greatfully received.
