P4: Describe the Key Aspects of legislations and guidelines relevant to the prevention and control of infection in a health or social care setting In this section of my assignment I will be describing the key aspects of legislation and guidelines relevant to the prevention and control of infection in a health or social care setting. There are many items of legislation and guidelines which are used in health and social care in order to protect and safeguard the health and well-being of all of those who work and are treated in the health and social care sector. These items of legislations work by preventing the spread and threat of infection through the use of hygienic and clean practices. Legislation, regulations and guidance that govern infection prevention and control: Health and Safety Act (1974) This Act places responsibilities on the Trust and individual employees to do what is reasonable and to adequately control the risks of infection to staff and others.

Basically, the government should be the force acting against negative crime committed from one person to another. If the peace is kept mutual between the citizens in the society, the government should not be active at all. The property of a citizen should be kept in safety, Hospers says, “libertarians support legislation that protects the property rights of individuals against confiscation, nationalization, eminent domain, robbery, trespass, fraud and misinterpretation, patent and copyright, libel and slander” (Velasquez 677).
