Course Overview

A procedure for field safety leadership that people cannot follow under time pressure is not a control. Regulators judge the wider occupational health and safety agenda on evidence of application, not on the existence of a document. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about this strand of occupational health and safety. Comparative studies of field safety leadership across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with the wider occupational health and safety agenda. What blocks progress on the occupational health and safety capability is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of field safety leadership and supervised application. This programme builds this area of occupational health and safety from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on the wider occupational health and safety agenda ready to put in front of a decision maker.
