About the programme

Course Overview

Where work-life balance in hazardous sectors depends on the vigilance of one experienced person, it is not yet a system. Safety performance on hazardous sectors degrades quietly during periods when nothing goes wrong. The course gives participants a defensible structure for this area of occupational health and safety and the judgement to adapt it. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make work-life balance in hazardous sectors hard in practice. Moving the occupational health and safety discipline from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on hazardous sectors are used deliberately. Practitioner evidence points the same way: work-life balance in hazardous sectors improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. They leave able to brief senior management on hazardous sectors in terms that support a decision. The final module sets out how progress on this aspect of occupational health and safety will be evidenced six months later.
