SPRING CONFERENCE

HEALTH AND SAFETY IN CHALLENGING TIMES

Achieving excellence in workplace health and safety is something that we all should aspire to, both from a moral and economic perspective, but turning the theory into practice is not always easy. The aim of the conference is to do just that by bringing together an experienced and knowledgeable panel of speakers who will demonstrate through presentations and case studies how to successfully deal with a number of key issues. You will then be in a position to consider how you might apply the right risk management techniques to your own working environment.

Topics covered will include the way forward for health and safety and how the current economic situation may impact on the management of stress in the workplace. Interactive sessions including case studies dealing with safe maintenance and fire risk assessment will also be included.

This Conference is organised through a partnership of the Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland (HSENI), the Northern Ireland Safety Group (NISG), the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH), the Northern Ireland Committee of the Irish Congress of Trade Unions (NIC/ICTU) and Belfast City Council representing the District Councils of Northern Ireland.
