Managers, supervisors and safety professionals increasingly play a complex and crucial role in ensuring the health and safety of employees and a well-grounded, comprehensive knowledge of the key issues is essential in order to meet these high demands.

Delegates will leave the course with a broad understanding of relevant legislation, safety performance monitoring, investigation of accidents, the design and implementation of safe systems of work and accident prevention programmes, and the management of safety within the workplace.

Risk Assessment

Under health and safety legislation the main requirement for employers is to conduct suitable and sufficient risk assessments. Indeed, risk assessments form the lynchpin of health and safety management. This course puts the emphasis on practical exercises, meaning that delegates will leave with the ability to perform risk assessments in their own organisations.	What will the delegate bring back to the workplace? ● An understanding of the practical application of risk assessment techniques ● A thorough understanding of the specific requirements of lone, pregnant and young workers ● Hazard identification techniques ● The ability to categorise and evaluate risk ● An understanding of the requirements for monitoring and reviewing risk assessments	Course Dates and Prices
