Who is Managing Safely for?

Managing Safely is for managers and supervisors in any sector, and any organisation. It’s designed to get managers up to speed on the practical actions they need to take to handle safety and health in their teams.

What will they get out of it?

Delegates will learn what they need to know – and are perhaps reluctant to learn about – in a refreshingly informal way. Managing Safely won’t turn delegates into safety experts – but it will give them the knowledge and tools to tackle the safety and health issues they’re responsible for. Importantly, it brings home just why safety and health is such an essential part of their job.

Successful delegates are awarded an IOSH Managing Safely certificate.

What will employers get out of it?

• Globally-recognised and respected certificated training for their managers and supervisors

• Peace of mind offered by training that’s designed and quality-assured by the Chartered body for safety and health professionals

• Flexibility – the programme can be delivered in time-slots that suit the business

• Two key areas – safety and health– are covered in a single programme

What will trainers get out of it?

• Straightforward, high-quality training designed by a team of specialists

• A ready-to-go programme pack – we’ve done the hard work, saving trainers the headache and the hassle

Managing Safely covers...

1. Introducing Managing Safely

Some managers may see safety and health as an add-on to their role – even an intrusion. The first module makes it clear that managers are accountable for their teams, and makes a persuasive case for managing safely.

2. Assessing risks

This module defines and demystifies ‘risk’ and ‘risk assessment’. Risk assessments and a simple scoring system are introduced, and delegates carry out a series of assessments.

3. Controlling risks

Here the session tackles cutting down risks, concentrating on the best techniques to control key risks, and how to choose the right method.

4. Understanding responsibilities

This module looks at the demands of the law and how the legal system works, and for those who do not have strict guidelines or laws, there is guidance and placeholders to fill with relevant information, and introduces a safety and health management system.

5. Understanding hazards

All the main issues any operation has to deal with are covered in this module – aggression and violence, asbestos, bullying, chemicals, computer workstations, confined spaces, drugs and alcohol, electricity, fire, getting in and out, heights, housekeeping, lighting, manual handling, noise, plant and machinery, radiation, slips and trips, stress, temperature, vehicles and transport, and vibration.

6. Investigating incidents

The session starts with why incidents should be investigated, and goes on to cover why things go wrong, and how to carry out an investigation when they do.

7. Measuring performance This module explains how checking performance can help to improve safety and health. Delegates learn how to develop basic performance indicators, and get to grips with auditing and proactive and reactive measuring.
