Course at Your Premises
Good training is essential for creating a safe working environment and this is especially true in the construction industry where the risk level is high and accidents can be common. IOSH are the world’s largest professional health and safety organisation and their specially tailored 4-day course, IOSH Managing Safely in Construction, teaches senior site staff how to manage efficiently in compliance with their company safety policy and current health and safety legislation.
This course leads to a formal qualification through IOSH (Institute of Occupational Safety & Health) and a personal display certificate.
The course aims to give managers the knowledge and skills necessary to enable them to recognise the hazards likely to be present in the construction industry and also teaches them the actions needed to control and manage hazards.
After completing the course delegates will have an understanding of how legal duties translate into their managerial responsibilities and will be able to distinguish between the duties and responsibilities of the employer, employee, client, contractor and sub-contractor. They will be familiar with risk assessment and risk control and, overall, will know the importance of continuous active monitoring.
