IOSH LEADING SAFELY

5 HOUR COURSE

Introduction

IOSH Leading Safely is a 5 hour workshop designed to give anyone with leadership responsibility the practical knowledge and the strategic solutions for sustainable business advantage through good safety and health practice.

Businesses are already realising the benefits from IOSH Leading Safely, using workable solutions and creating inclusive and well-managed organisational cultures with faster pay-back. Led from the top and incorporated into management systems, better safety and health practice can be a genuine investment for your organisation.

Based on student feedback, the stand-out feature of this IOSH Leading Safely Course is the tailored nature and link to enterprise risk management provided by the tutor, PCRs Head of Risk Management, Andrew Protheroe (MSc, CMIOSH, FIIRSM, FInstLM, CQP MCQI).

Andy makes it easy for delegates to benchmark their current and future safety and health vision and priorities in line with global models of safety, and to recognise good practice gathered from leading organisations from around the world.

This course can be delivered privately and tailored to your organisation (recommended), or you can join one of our scheduled public courses to learn lessons from peers in other organisations.

This course is endorsed by Build UK and meets the CITB training standard set for construction directors

Note* If you want your Course Certificate or Course Workbook posted to a country outside of the UK, you will be required to cover this cost.
