The course is designed to provide these individuals with the ability to manage safely and effectively in compliance with both their organisation’s policy and best practice in health and safety.
The aim of the course is to ensure that safety requirements are appreciated by people employed as line managers and to enable them to review their own departmental systems for safety, introducing new controls or implementing changes as appropriate to make the department work more safely.
