Understand your responsibilities as a manager


Because every manager needs an understanding of their safety and health responsibilities.

Managing Safely is unlike any other safety and health course. Why? Because it delivers practical step-by-step guidance with a sharp business focus that’s hands-on and jargon-free. The innovative format and content is engaging and inspiring – critical to embedding safety and health throughout your entire organisation.

The course Managing Safely factsheet and a sample of the delegate workbook are now available in Arabic. The factsheet is also available in Simplified Chinese.
