Course Overview

Safety risk management is a key component of a successful organisation that deals with or is exposed to hazardous environments or equipment. It is crucial to such organisations that risks, and safety aspects are evaluated and monitored continuously in a structured manner.

Proper management of risks is also required to assess the repercussions associated with potential safety hazards, devise an effective mitigation plan, and implement it effectively. During this course, all participants will also be able to evaluate their company’s risk management processes by correctly identifying hazards, providing effective controls to mitigate safety risks, and designing systems and processes to reduce loss and damage due to hazardous equipment or facilities.

Furthermore, you will also learn how to conduct effective safety meetings, administer regulatory and compliance protocols, and utilise behavioural theories and the human factor in the management of safety.

What is the main aim and purpose of this “Safety Risk Management Certification Training Course”? This course aims to provide you with further knowledge and understanding of health, safety, and environmental management concepts, with a specific focus on their importance in the workplace.

The training program also demonstrates the importance of the human factor in any successful safety and risk management system by emphasising the roles that people play and how their behaviours can influence the effectiveness of such systems.

This Zoe training course will empower you with the fundamental skills necessary to promote safety and risk management within the workplace.
