WHO IS IT FOR?

OVERVIEW

This is a one day course. The Managing Safely Refresher course is a practical programme, full of step-by-step guidance, with a clear business focus. The format and content keep your staff interested and stimulated throughout the course – critical to getting safety and health embedded across the whole organisation

The one-day course is for delegates who have already completed the full Managing Safely course. To be eligible to take the Refresher course, delegates must do so within three years of completing Managing Safely. It is recommended to do this course every 3 years to keep up with current legislation. Not only will delegates get to refresh their knowledge on the key parts of the full Managing Safely course, but there’s also a greater emphasis on monitoring, auditing and reviewing, developed through two practical case studies.

WHAT WILL I LEARN?

TOPIC AREAS

• Thinking back: A personal reflection from delegates on what they took away from the full Managing Safely course and a discussion on what each delegate wants to get from the Refresher course. Delegates will also revisit the key reasons for managing safely in an engaging and participative way.
• Refreshing your knowledge: Through an interactive quiz and group discussion, delegates will refresh their knowledge of the key learning points from the full Managing Safely course.
• Building on what you know:Delegates will learn why leadership and management are important, their role in influencing managing safely, changes to legislation that affect them, how you can work with the Plan, Do, Check and Act model, and why effective communication is essential.
• Putting managing safely: into practice Carrying out a site audit – in this practical part of the course delegates will work in pairs or small groups to review and comment on monitoring checklists based on the operations of a real business, to help them understand why monitoring and reporting are important parts of an organisation’s safety and health arrangements.
• Applying the management system This is the second part of the practical element, which builds on the previous module and focuses on the Plan, Do, Check and Act model – looking specifically at what controls need to be put in place, how to get key players on board, keeping staff up to date with identifying any issues, and assessing the overall success of your plan and the lessons learned.
