Practical Emergency Preparedness
3 days|Delivered on request
This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through legal appointments and duties and permit to work systems on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: safety systems are often documented to a standard that daily practice does not match, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with hazard identification, toolbox talks and personal protective equipment in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put hazard identification on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against the Construction Regulations
- Spot where toolbox talks is failing before it becomes a finding
- Bring personal protective equipment into line with current good practice
- Explain incident investigation to someone who does not do the work
