INTRODUCTION
Health, Safety and Environmental Management Systems are based on a proactive process for incidents prevention. Risk assessment is required to be applied to all activities that impacts on health & Safety, production, asset, environment and the Company reputation. In this programme you will learn how to:
-
Improve your practical skills in applying risk assessment techniques relevant to your activities
-
Effectively balance risk against cost in order to optimize risk reduction measures
-
Motivate your people for improved safety culture
-
Appreciate the role of Quantified Risk Assessment and major hazards
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
-
All Supervisors and line management who need to fulfill their role within HSE-MS
-
Production, process, mechanical, control, maintenance and HSE personnel
-
All personnel involved in implementing the Company’s HSE Management System
PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES
-
Recognise the difference between hazard, risk and risk assessment
-
Learn how to evaluate different types of risk
-
Develop the skills of applying advanced risk assessment techniques
-
Develop a strategy for planning and implementing risk reduction action plans
-
Discover a variety of communication styles to effectively cope with different situations
-
Plan and conduct successful appraisal interviews with their team
-
Create a Plan of Action to implement in their organisation
TRAINING METHODOLOGY
Participants will learn by active participation during the programme through the use of exercises, syndicate and group discussion, training videos and discussions on relevant types of accidents and "real life" issues in their organisations.
PROGRAMME SUMMARY
The programme aims to provide hands-on experience in the application of risk assessment techniques to all aspects of production operations. It ranges from workplace/activity to the task-based risk assessments and advanced risk assessment techniques. Analysis of the consequences of major hazards, including fire, explosion and toxic releases are modeled using advanced commercial software is also addressed. Aspects of human error in relation to accidents are analysed and included in the general framework of risk assessment.
