Strategic Occupational Health and Safety
5 days|Delivered on request
Strategic Occupational Health and Safety looks at this work from the level at which it is resourced and defended. The focus is on occupational hygiene, legal appointments and duties and how both connect to what the organisation is actually trying to achieve. This matters at the strategic level because safety systems are often documented to a standard that daily practice does not match. Delegates leave able to work confidently with permit to work systems, safety culture and emergency preparedness in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain permit to work systems to someone who does not do the work, measured against ISO 14001
- Make a decision about safety culture without waiting for a specialist
- Bring emergency preparedness into line with current good practice
