The health and safety of the company and its employees are important elements that require adequate attention from leadership. Companies should adopt a proactive, rather than reactive, approach in this regard.

It is worth noting that improving production levels, minimizing losses, and enhancing competitive capability can be best achieved when every individual in the organization feels safe and secure about their well-being.

In an effort to promote a culture of safety and its management, the British Academy for Training and Development has announced the "Training Course on Safety Culture and Management" for individuals responsible for ensuring safety in their institutions.

This course will analyze and evaluate the safety management system within the organization, investigate methodologies and report writing, ways to minimize losses, and provide training on safety behaviors.

Who should attend? 

• Directors
• Departmental Heads
• HSE Managers and Advisors
• Those persons responsible for leading safety within an organisation at a global, regional or local level
• Those seeking new concepts in aiming for zero exposure to workplace accidents, incidents, illness and injuries as well as others that are interested in developing safety leadership skills from tomorrow’s best practices
