Description

What will you learn?

This course is highly interactive and uses an applied learning approach with delegates working together, using relevant case studies and learning through real examples. It covers:

  • The global risk management standard ISO 31000 - principles, process and framework.
  • How risk management can support implementation of ISO 45001.
  • The importance of people, psychology and behaviour in managing health and safety risk.
  • How broad 'risk-based' approaches achieve better overall business results.

What is a 'risk-based' approach?

  • Understanding an organisation's internal and external context.
  • Having purpose beyond mere profit, and values that embed that purpose.
  • Embracing and managing change.
  • Using a common risk language.
  • Empowering risk leadership at all levels across an organisation.
  • Linking OSH to the wider organisational risk framework.
  • Engaging stakeholders beyond the workforce.
  • Taking a proportionate approach to managing risk and opportunities.

Why a 'risk-based' approach?

  • Industry recognizes that OSH professionals need a broader appreciation of risk management.
  • The UK's Health and Safety Executive's 3 year strategy promotes a 'risk-based' approach.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
