IOSH Working Safely Course in Manchester
This 1-day IOSH Working Safely course is aimed specifically at those people who are required to manage safely and efficiently in accordance with their company’s policies and procedures.
Delivery Method
This course is delivered in a traditional classroom setting in Manchester, Greater Manchester, M17 1AY.
Training Objectives
1). Introducing working safely
This module stresses the realities of the human suffering behind the statistics and emphasises the importance of personal responsibility.
2). Defining hazard and risk
This module puts ‘hazard’ and ‘risk’ into everyday language, and uses familiar examples to show what can happen. Focusing on the six broad hazard groups, delegates are asked to think about the hazards and risks they come across in their own work. ‘Risk assessment’ is demystified – delegates learn that we all carry out informal assessments day in, day out.
3). Identifying common hazards
All the main issues are covered in this module – entrances and exits, work traffic, fire, chemicals, electricity, physical and verbal abuse, bullying, stress, noise and the working environment, slips, trips and falls, and manual handling.
4). Improving safety performance
This module deals with systems and processes, making sure that any jargon is explained in easily understood terms. The session bridges the gap between management and workforce, encouraging delegates to play a part in processes that are commonly seen as just down to their manager or supervisor.
5). Protecting our environment
A short but effective introduction to waste and pollution leads into a look at how organisations and individual team members can get involved in reducing environmental impacts.
Assessment
At the conclusion of the course delegates will undertake a short multiple assessment and three hazard/risk spotting exercise.
