This course covers the health and safety management basics in an interactive package. Managing safely is for managers and supervisors in any sector, and any organisation. It’s designed to get managers up to speed on the practical actions they need to take to handle health and safety in a refreshingly informal way.

No more ‘death by PowerPoint’. We know that getting people fully involved, having fun, and learning by doing, is the way to achieve health and safety training success. We want to get delegates really thinking about what they’re learning – and having the confidence and enthusiasm to put it into practice when they’re back at work.

This course is unlike any other. You’ll find a practical programme, full of step-by-step guidance, and with a sharp business focus. But you’ll also find that the highly innovative format and content engages and inspires delegates – critical to getting essential health and safety messages across.

Approach to the Course:

• Superb quality animated graphics created exclusively for the course
• A sophisticated but fun presentation
• First class technical content, based on what delegates need to know in practice
• No jargon or off-putting legal language
• Clear scenarios that managers can relate to
• A range of ready-to-use training tools, including a board game, DVDs and quizzes

What the Course provides:

What they need to know – and are perhaps reluctant to learn about – in a refreshingly informal way.

Managing safely won’t turn delegates into safety experts – but it will give them the knowledge and tools to tackle the health and safety issues they’re responsible for. Importantly, it brings home just why health and safety is such an essential part of their job. Successful delegates are awarded an IOSH Managing safely certificate.

What the employer recieves from the Course:

• Nationally recognised and respected certificated training for their managers and supervisors
• Peace of mind offered by training that’s designed and quality controlled by IOSH, the Chartered body for health and safety professionals
• Flexibility – the four-day programme can be delivered in slots that suit the business

Two key areas – health and safety and environmental basics – are covered in a single programme.

Course Outline:

• Introducing Managing Safely
• Assessing risks
• Controlling risks
• Understanding your responsibilities
• Identifying hazards
• Investigating accidents and incidents
• Measuring performance
• Protecting our environment

Assessment:

Multi-choice examination, then a risk assessment project.
