Intelligent Risk Management – Elementus
Talk Synopsis
Managing health, safety and environmental workplace compliance is not easy, even when it’s a sole job function. So what do you do when it’s only part of a part of your role? Changing legislation, contractors, landlords, tenants, insurers, enforcers and suppliers all want something from you, and of course you have to look after the needs of your colleagues and your senior management too. Irrespective of the size or location of your workplace, compliance is an obligation on all businesses. How this is achieved is down to how intelligently you manage the workplace risks that are relevant to your organisation. This session considers what intelligent risk management should look like in your workplace and will provide you with practical advice on either achieving or maintaining it.
