Fundamentals of Construction Safety
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Construction Safety is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through safety auditing and personal protective equipment without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because safety systems are often documented to a standard that daily practice does not match, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with legal appointments and duties, root cause analysis and waste management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring legal appointments and duties into line with current good practice, measured against the Occupational Health and Safety Act
- Improve root cause analysis within their own organisation
- Explain waste management to someone who does not do the work
- Take ownership of emergency preparedness rather than escalating it
