Course Overview
A procedure for heat stress risk assessment that people cannot follow under time pressure is not a control. The cost of an incident involving risk assessment lands on production, insurance, licence and reputation at once. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in the occupational health and safety capability rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. Participants gain a realistic view of what heat stress risk assessment costs and what it returns. The content is relevant to those who own this strand of occupational health and safety and to those who are held accountable for its results. A common pattern is strong design of risk assessment paired with weak follow-through. It concentrates on the parts of heat stress risk assessment that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place risk assessment among the areas with the widest performance spread. Participants leave with a plan for this part of occupational health and safety sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.

Course Modules
Heat stress risk assessment: competence, authorisation and supervision
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Who is competent to work on heat stress risk assessment, and how you know
- Distinguish symptoms from causes when heat stress risk assessment underperforms.
- Confirm that controls on risk assessment sit as high up the hierarchy as reasonably practicable.
- Write down the assumptions underpinning the approach to heat stress risk assessment.
- Map the handovers in risk assessment between functions and secure them.
Session 2Assessing the hazards in risk assessment without turning it into paperwork
- Prepare the response for the most likely failure in heat stress risk assessment.
- Set escalation thresholds for risk assessment that work out of hours.
- Establish what evidence demonstrates heat stress risk assessment is under control.
- Set leading indicators for risk assessment that predict rather than count.
Risk assessment: reporting, investigation and root cause
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Reviewing risk assessment when nothing has gone wrong
- Confirm isolation and lockout arrangements for heat stress risk assessment are proven before work starts.
- Anticipate the objections risk assessment will raise and prepare the answers.
- Close out corrective actions on heat stress risk assessment with a named owner and date.
- Rehearse the emergency and rescue plan for risk assessment, do not just publish it.
Session 2Checking that protective equipment for risk assessment actually protects
- Confirm the training cycle sustaining competence in heat stress risk assessment is current.
- Record who is authorised to work on risk assessment and when authorisation expires.
- Reduce the variation in how heat stress risk assessment is carried out between teams.
- Check that risk assessment still works when volumes rise unexpectedly.
Risk assessment: contractors and shared workplaces
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Making near-miss reporting on risk assessment safe to do
- Apply management of change to any modification affecting heat stress risk assessment.
- Close out actions on risk assessment rather than leaving them open indefinitely.
- Identify the hazards in heat stress risk assessment and rank them by consequence, not by frequency.
- Test that protective equipment specified for risk assessment fits and is maintained.
Session 2Who answers for heat stress risk assessment, and to whom
- Check the procedure for heat stress risk assessment against how the work is actually done.
- Arrange the handover of risk assessment so capability survives staff changes.
- Test the procedure for heat stress risk assessment against a realistic scenario.
- Assess long-term health exposure created by risk assessment and arrange surveillance.
Risk assessment: protective equipment and its verification
2 sessions · 8 pointsSession 1Rescue arrangements for risk assessment that have been rehearsed
- Prepare the evidence pack a regulator would ask for on heat stress risk assessment.
- Benchmark the organisation's risk assessment against comparable operations.
- Establish the boundary of heat stress risk assessment and record what sits outside it.
- Audit application of risk assessment controls at the workface.
Session 2Keeping risk assessment alive after the initial push
- Set the review interval for heat stress risk assessment and who attends.
- Verify contractor competence and method statements for risk assessment.
- Make the reporting route for hazards in heat stress risk assessment short and non-punitive.
- Estimate the resource risk assessment requires to run as designed.
