Introduction
Any Construction Project requires a balanced view of what is required to be achieved as against the best and most efficient methods of work that will ensure the safety of both personnel and the environment. A project is essentially a collaborative enterprise that place responsibilities on all parties, from the owner to the contractor and subcontractor. All stages of a project require evaluation of the potential H&S risks that may develop.
This seminar aims at setting the guidelines and knowledge base required to evaluate the project in H&S performance and avoid unnecessary delays. Participants attending the seminar will develop the following competencies:
- Health & Safety Legislation
- Safety Management
- Occupational Health
- Common Construction Hazards and Controls
- Pre-Construction Safety Reports
Benefits
This seminar is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:
- HSE Personnel

By the end of this seminar, participants will be able to:
- Understand the Legal aspects of H&S in construction projects
- Identify H&S hazards within a construction project

Training Methodology
The seminar is presented face to face and will utilise a variety of proven adult learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. This includes presentations of videos, case studies and discussions that will enhance the learning process. The power point slides will be available to all delegates in both soft and hard copy. Active participation is encouraged during the seminar.
Seminar Summary
The seminar will provide the delegates with the necessary knowledge to successfully manage health and safety in a construction project and not face surprises. Legislation, safety plans, occupational health and the assessment of risks are all covered. These topics if not clearly thought out in good time can very well lead to unfortunate delays.
Delegates, by applying this knowledge, will be able to persuade colleagues and contractors on the correct methods to follow in matters of health and safety.
