The course

Health and safety, from the boardroom.

Directors and senior leaders carry legal responsibility for health and safety, and their decisions shape the culture of the whole organisation. IOSH Safety for Executives and Directors explains those responsibilities clearly and shows how strong leadership improves performance and protects the business.

It is short, focused and written for senior people, with no technical health and safety knowledge needed.
