IOSH Managing Safely (Refresher)

About This Course

The overall aim of this course is for candidates to acquire knowledge and practical skills to manage competently, the health & safety issues at their workplace and to international accredited levels.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

At the end of the course, delegates will be able to:

• Apply basic management principles and practices to health & safety issues as part of a total business strategy
• Set practical health and safety objectives, plan and implement courses of action to achieve those objectives
• Recognise safety and health hazards present in the workplace
• Ensure adequate information, training and supervision is provided
• Investigate incidents and take remedial action
• Understand and implement their legal responsibilities

COURSE CONTENT

The course comprises of seven core modules delivered over one day.

• Principles of accident prevention
• Common and statute law update
• Health and safety management systems
• Safety management models and risk management
• Workplace hazards, such as fire, electricity, COSHH, noise and work equipment
• Accident causation and investigation
• Effective communications
• Audit and review

This assessed course will cover the application of recognised management principles in health and safety and will equip the delegate to tackle the issues in their own work place.

Delegates must allocate sufficient time after the course for completing a workplace based assignment.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

The course is designed for anyone (managers, supervisors, team leaders) who has responsibility for "managing" health and safety and have previously completed the IOSH Managing Safely course - this course is a refresher.

ASSESSMENT AND CERTIFICATION

This course is assessed by:

1. A short written/objective multiple-choice paper.
2. A workplace based written assignment in English.

The practical assessment must be completed in the delegate's workplace and submitted within two weeks of completing the course. A minimum pass grade of 70% is required for certification.

Delegates who attend and successfully complete both the practical and written assessments, will be awarded the Managing Safety Refresher certificate issued by the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) in the UK.

Note: Tuition and examination is in English only.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

It is well recognised by all parties that time can erode both knowledge and skill.

To overcome this, for delegates who took the full IOSH Managing Safely course within the last three years, IOSH is now recommending that they sit a re-certification course prior to the end of their three-year period with this refresher.

For those who took the full course more than five years ago, IOSH recommends that they undertake the full 3-day course again.

IN-HOUSE TRAINING

This course can be tailored to reflect your organisation's system of work. It can also be presented as an in-company package at your company's facility and/or preferred location. For further details such as corporate rates and schedules, please contact us.
