HSE Inspectors’ Guide to Risk Assessment

Book Course
HSL is to run a 1 day course on HSE Inspectors’ Guide to Risk Assessment.

24 January 2019

Other available dates: email us to book

Introduction
This workshop will be delivered by a senior HSE inspector with more than 25 years of
experience, and is a rare opportunity to understand your regulator by seeing the world through
an inspector's eyes.

You will learn: how HSE examines and uses employers' risk assessments; the common errors
that HSE finds in the risk assessment process; and how to use this information to manage risks
more effectively and avoid enforcement action.

The course will cover:

The different types of risk assessments required under health and safety legislation.
How HSE inspectors use risk assessments during inspections and investigations, and how they
form judgements about whether risks are being adequately controlled.
The common errors that inspectors find in risk assessments and in how businesses use them
to manage risks.
The circumstances where an inadequate risk assessment may cause an Inspector to take
enforcement action, and what form that action is likely to take.
How to improve your risk assessment processes, manage risks better and avoid formal or
informal action.

Who should attend?

Health and Safety Professionals responsible for managing or advising on the interface between
businesses and the HSE.

Business owners or managers responsible for managing and controlling risks.

Venue
The course will be run at the HSL laboratory in the spa town of
Buxton. Buxton is in the heart of the Peak District and has good
links to mainline train stations and Manchester International Airport.
