Fundamentals of Emergency Preparedness
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Emergency Preparedness is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through emergency preparedness and root cause analysis without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because incident investigation frequently stops at the immediate cause, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with safety management systems, environmental impact assessment and confined space entry in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about safety management systems without waiting for a specialist, measured against the Occupational Health and Safety Act
- Put environmental impact assessment on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Take ownership of confined space entry rather than escalating it
- Bring personal protective equipment into line with current good practice
