Course Overview
The cost of an incident involving workplace risk management lands on production, insurance, licence and reputation at once. Almost every serious incident involving this strand of occupational health and safety was preceded by a signal somebody noticed and nobody escalated. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in the practice within occupational health and safety rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in workplace risk management, not around theory headings. The content is relevant to those who own the occupational health and safety capability and to those who are held accountable for its results. Moving this area of occupational health and safety from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. Mature organisations treat workplace risk management as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about the occupational health and safety discipline under scrutiny. The final session converts the week's work on this area of occupational health and safety into commitments with owners and dates.
