Many organisations in Africa have achieved significant milestones concerning Health and Safety performance, particularly the reduction in Injury frequency rates and the reporting of leading and lagging indicators. However, headlines continue to be gripped by the occurrence of major accidents and high-consequence events that can lead to serious injuries, loss of life, and major environmental damage.
Most of these accidents have revealed a common thread – that controls were known but were not effectively implemented. Traditional SHE Management Systems fall far short as they are generally complex with lengthy Risk Registers, procedures, and checklists that make it difficult for employees to know: -
- What Risks are most critical?
- What controls are most important?
- Who is responsible for ensuring that these controls are deployed at an instant?
Ultimately, this results in gaps in implementation, missed warning signals, and failure of the critical controls under operational conditions.
This webinar provides the tools and techniques for managing and maintaining your critical controls in an operational state.
This webinar is designed to engage and support participants from the following industries:
- Manufacturing
- Mining
- Energy
- Transportation
- Metropolitan Government
