Why Attend
Health, safety, and environmental management systems rely on proactive incident prevention and reactive performance monitoring. Risk assessments are essential for actions affecting safety, production, assets, the environment, or reputation. This seminar will teach advanced risk assessment techniques, balancing risk and cost, fostering safety culture, understanding Quantified Risk Assessment, and applying root-cause analysis to investigate incidents.
Instructor-led training that uses interactive learning methods, including class discussion, small group activities, and role-playing
