People do not anticipate accidents. But they do happen. Current theory: All accidents are preventable. There is always a history. Hence safety is not luck; it is the consequence of a chain of activities.

For centuries, engineers used safety as their basis of design. They built in ‘safety factors’ and ‘fail–safe' modes into their designs. But design alone cannot safeguard property and life; there is a responsibility of the organization to sustain the basis of safety.

This seminar is designed as a way of supporting our fellow engineers and others to offer guidance on how to sustain this basis of safety. It gives a glimpse of the four primary elements of the safety management system.

Compliance with legislation
Risk identification and assessment
Emergency response
Management of Control measures

The seminar is FREE OF CHARGE and is open for anybody who is interested in reducing injury rates and thereby improving productivity.
A reception and fellowship will follow the seminar at the Members’ Lounge of the Institution.
