Asset Information, publisher of the monthly journal Facilities Management Legal Update, a news partner to i-FM, has launched a new legal web site for facilities managers.

Workplacelaw.net - provides the latest news and analysis of law, regulations and cases that have an impact on managing workplaces in the UK.

Workplacelaw.net is the first free, fully searchable legal resource for facilities managers, offering news and guidance on health and safety, employment law, fire safety, contract regulations and the implications of court cases. The news and analysis is provided by Asset Information's team of editors, including contributions from some of the UK’s leading lawyers and consultants.

Visitors can also register for a free fortnightly e-bulletin containing the latest updates on workplace law. David Sharp, Director of Asset Information, commented: "We have been working on a free site for facilities managers for nearly eight months now. The aim for workplacelaw.net is to get legal news - in plain English - to the people in the front line who really need it, so that they can be aware of their exposure to risks."
