It
is estimated by the health and safety executive that in the UK
about 500 people are killed at work every year and several hundred thousand more
are injured or suffer ill-health. It is estimated that the cost
to UK employers of work-related injury and illness exceeds £4 billion a
year. Never let it be said that health and safety management training
is not a cost effective investment.
Implementing knowledge acquired
by health and safety management training for the achievement
of good working practices, and the elimination of hazards, is the responsibility
of everyone involved with what the organisation does and produces. Consider health
and safety management training as a serious event. However the onus is on
all managers to go beyond the standards of health and safety management training
as required by legislation, regulations and codes of practices. |
