Safety watchdog BuildSafe UAE (BSU) has signed a memorandum of understanding with international Health and Safety Executive group, IOSH.

The agreement, signed by BSU chair Grahame McCaig and IOSH President John Holden, means that both groups can build on previous good relations, and can share materials and information between each other without fear of copyright infringement as well as liaising with each other in terms of promotions and initiatives.
