It is a system of rules which are there for guidance rather than being absolute.  For example, the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 sets the basis for regulation of health and safety. It provides a non-prescriptive regime of general duties to keep the risks arising from work activities as low as reasonably practicable.

Well, these very abritrary rules are in constant revision.\nYou are aiming to be understood, not perfect, right?\nUse "1970's".\nIf you have a boss looking over your shoulder, you need to find the most recent copy of some respected rulesetters, or just take a look in the most respected journals in your field.  Like the AMA or ADA or APA's research, etc.\nGood luck!

If it is a credible threat and the person threatened is in sustained fear.  If you say, "I am sending Brutus over to break your knee caps."  Brutus shows up to victims house with a bat; you my friend are committing a felony.  Empty threats are made often and are not a crime, but if you meet the elements you could be in a world of hurt.

The guidelines for assessing and identifying hazards and risk vary depending upon the inviroment. For example, in an industrial setting the hazzard and risk factors will differ than say in an Assisted living Center or a Restuarant, etc, etc\nYou need to give more information about the inviroment that you are assessing.\nWhen filling your report you need to document the specific location of the hazard or safety risk as well as a detailed explanation of the risk factors. You also need to documment a detailed plan of correction and the date and time the plan of correction will be completed. You then need to do a follow up inspection to insure that the task has indeed been completed and document the findings along with the date and time.

Please ignore some of the tosh people have written as supposed advice here!! Threats to kill are only taken as that in the eye of the law if the person making the threat has the ability to carry that threat through at the time of making said threat. This is the word of the law. It is not the choice of the police. They do not make the laws and can be as frustrated as you, me or anyone else with such laws. \n\nFurthermore, harrassment is something far better dealt with via civil law through a solicitor and a county court. Please look into this. You will be far better served in this instance if you take this route. Criminal law is not really any good until serious offences have occured in this area. Also, there is no such thing as a verbal assault in the eyes of the law. Although you could argue that someone suffers physically because of the verbal onslaught they had received, but this would be an exceptional case. \n\nSee a sol re civil law. It really is your best bet.

Correct. Clear and convincing is a level of proof sometimes required in a civil case for the plaintiff to prevail. It means the trier of fact must be persuaded by the evidence that it is highly probable that the claim or affirmative defense is true. The clear and convincing evidence standard is a heavier burden than the preponderance of the evidence standard but less than beyond a reasonable doubt.

Totalitarian police state. I recall that people could be punished for having bad thoughts, for planning crimes in their heads. It was a few steps beyond the Cheney 1% doctrine where the US will treat any threat that has a 1% probability of occuring as if it was a certainty. (One Percent Doctrine, by Ron Suskind), and a few steps beyond the Bush doctrine of preemptive war; that the US has the right to strike another country BEFORE it's an imminent threat to the US or one of our allies.
