Risk and Safety Management play an important part in every business success. Identifying the various types of risk and the implications that each might have on a company, as well as highlighting the business benefits that can be obtained through successful risk and safety management all need to be included in an overall company strategy.

The Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (General Application) Regulations 2007 place a much stronger emphasis on risk assessment as a core element of health and safety management. Clause 6.1 of ISO 45001:2018 also requires companies to take action to address health and safety risks and opportunities.

This one-day course will be very beneficial to personnel in the company who are responsible for health and safety hazard identification and risk assessment.
