While both of these criteria deal with the availability and access to health and safety related information, the difference is found in the explanations in the workbook. Criteria 3.8.3 refers to control of the organisation’s own health and safety documents, such as policies, procedures and work instructions, while 2.1.3 deals with legislation, standards, codes of practice etc. that are generated from outside of the organisation. Seen in the context of their relevant sub-headings, 3.8.3 is concerned with the process of document and data control while 2.1.3 is to do with keeping everyone informed about legislative matters and practical guidance on health and safety.
