Address the human and organisational factors that make occupational safety inspection fail.
Qualified Occupational Safety and Health Inspector
Practical training in occupational safety inspection, grounded in real cases and applied to your own operation.
Course Overview
Regulators judge occupational safety inspection on evidence of application, not on the existence of a document. Almost every serious incident involving this part of occupational health and safety was preceded by a signal somebody noticed and nobody escalated. This programme builds this aspect of occupational health and safety from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. What blocks progress on occupational safety inspection is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. The most reliable predictor of sound the practice within occupational health and safety is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. The content is relevant to those who own this part of occupational health and safety and to those who are held accountable for its results. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what occupational safety inspection has actually achieved. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in this area of occupational health and safety rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. Participants leave with a plan for the occupational health and safety discipline sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.
