Give your managers the confidence to lead safely.
Managers and supervisors make dozens of decisions every day that affect the safety of their teams. IOSH Managing Safely gives them a clear, practical understanding of their responsibilities and the tools to assess risk, control hazards and investigate incidents properly.
It is designed for managers in any sector, with no technical background needed, and is one of the most widely recognised health and safety certificates in the UK.
The course explained.
Want the full picture before you enquire? Ask us for the course information pack.
Managing Safely is built for busy managers, not safety specialists. It focuses on what they actually need to do: understand their legal duties, recognise hazards, assess and control risk, and learn from incidents.
The course is practical and engaging, using real workplace examples throughout. It finishes with a short multiple-choice test and a practical risk assessment of the learner’s own workplace, so they leave able to put it into practice straight away.
The certificate does not expire, and IOSH recommends a one-day refresher every three years to keep knowledge current.
