IOSH Directing Safely

for directors of small and medium sized enterprises. It
provides delegates with an understanding of the moral, legal and
business case for proactive health & safety management and
gives guidance on effective risk management.
Benefits of attending
This course is a must for company directors as it explains your
legal obligations as directors and balances that with the

visit or use your services.
