Practical health and safety governance insights for directors and business leaders.
The Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 (HSWA) requires directors to take ultimate responsibility for the health and safety of their business. The principles underpinning health and safety governance are no different than any other aspect of a governance role. Good health and safety governance is about having a demonstrable plan and a pro-active approach to making the workplace as safe as it can be.
This health and safety governance update will provide an overview of directors’ duties and liabilities under the HSWA Act, introducing key terms and concepts central to meeting these obligations, while providing practical information on how to deliver best practice governance.
Under Chatham House Rule, health and safety systems auditor, Melissa Vinning will share insights from relevant industry and case law examples from recent high profile cases she has been involved with.
Melissa is an experienced human resources consultant with over 20 years working in management, human resources and as a health and safety specialist.
