Fundamentals of Ergonomics in the Workplace
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Ergonomics in the Workplace is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through permit to work systems and waste management without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because environmental obligations are increasingly enforced against named individuals, 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 auditing, safety management systems and contractor safety management in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about safety auditing without waiting for a specialist, measured against ISO 14001
- Put safety management systems on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
