Director Involvement in Health and Safety

In the decade it has taken to secure the introduction of the new offence of Corporate Manslaughter, there has been a growing focus on the health and safety responsibilities of directors and senior managers in all organisations.

Increasingly health and safety is now accepted as a board level corporate performance issue, an important dimension of corporate social responsibility on which organisations should report to their stakeholders. The Health and Safety Executive has continued to focus on the business benefits of effective health and safety management while continuing to bear down on poor performers. This course will enable delegates to gain an understanding of a director’s role in agreeing and driving forward health and safety strategy. Who should attend?
Directors, governors, trustees, officers and their equivalents in the private, public and voluntary sector.

What will the delegate bring back to the workplace? 
- An understanding of the key concepts outlined in HSE/Institute of Directors ‘Leading health and safety at work’ 
- The benefits of a ‘beyond compliance’ approach 
- Knowledge of the essential principles of planning for health and safety, and the importance of this topic as a corporate governance issue 
- The importance of embedding health and safety into the business 
- The ability to understand the requirement that health and safety issues need to be addressed competently and systematically 
- How to balance the health and safety equation within the business

All delegates who successfully complete the course will be awarded a RoSPA certificate of training.
