Security and Safety of Vital Installations and Government Buildings

Course Overview

Almost every serious incident involving vital installation safety was preceded by a signal somebody noticed and nobody escalated. A procedure for the occupational health and safety discipline that people cannot follow under time pressure is not a control. Plans for this aspect of occupational health and safety often fail at the handover point between functions. Organisations that document vital installation safety properly resolve disputes about it far more quickly. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on the occupational health and safety discipline are used deliberately. Every module pairs a short input on the wider occupational health and safety agenda with structured practice on the participant's own material. Participants gain a realistic view of what vital installation safety costs and what it returns. This programme builds this part of occupational health and safety from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to the wider occupational health and safety agenda that the participant is prepared to defend internally.
