This webinar, hosted by the CIA, will be presented by Elaine Skilling - HM Principal Specialist Inspector (Human Factors Engineering) of the HSE. This webinar is aimed at those operating COMAH sites and engaged in dealing with Human Factors considerations in the prevention and mitigation of Major Accident Hazards. Elaine will cover the following topics from the HSE’s Human Factors COMAH Delivery Guide: ‘Managing Human Performance’ and ‘Human Factors in Process Design’. As part of the presentation, Elaine will also cover questions previously collected on Human Factors from CIA members. There will also be an opportunity for some ‘live’ questions at the event, but also questions can be submitted after the event (via the CIA). There will be no recording of this webinar but the presentation and answers to questions will be made available to event attendees.
What is a Kaizen event? It is a rapid improvement activity that engages with a team of people to leverage their knowledge, experience and imagination to fix problems and drive improvements. Engaging as much of the workforce as possible in driving improvements increases the chances of long-term success. If a business stands still, it will be lost. A business must always strive to get better, to stay ahead of the competition.
In order to get the best out of your people you need to understand and develop your leadership abilities. This course is aimed at senior and middle managers looking for a grounding in principles of leadership, taking into account the unique demands of managing high hazard sites, and will link in with leadership models and guidance as published by the Process Safety Leadership Group, and the OECD’s Corporate Governance for Process Safety.
This course will provide an overview of the applicable legislation and guidance and the management processes involved, to provide a strategic overview of DSEAR.
***This workshop will be delivered online via MS Teams and split over 2 half day sessions - am Wednesday 17th and am Thursday 18th September 2025*** Safety Data Sheets (SDS) are a key communication document to provide information on the hazardous properties of chemical products and advice on risk management to reduce exposure to acceptable levels as well as advice on remedial action in case of accidents. Anyone handling or supplying hazardous chemicals will already be familiar with the SDS and everyone supplying mixtures in the UK and EU 27 - from importers to formulators - needs to understand the SDS and how REACH affects it (EU/UK). For the writing SDS, getting the format correct is the easy part if following guidance, but to do this correctly, there must be an in depth knowledge of chemical safety control. Register for this workshop to help you ensure your SDS is fit for purpose, and that you fully understand SDS provided by suppliers – and to check suppliers are providing you with appropriate details.
***This workshop will be delivered online and split over 2 half day sessions - am Wednesday 8th and am Thursday 9th October 2025.*** As more SVHCs come under the regulatory spotlight and the number of customer enquiries your company receives regarding chemicals of concern grow, you will be ever more reliant on a robust supply chain management system to ensure REACH compliance as part of product stewardship.This workshop will outline the essentials of a compliance strategy that will help you identify if you are doing all you can to comply, recognise where business risks are likely to occur and how to minimise them and develop and maintain your strategy for compliance as part of good product stewardship. The implications of the UK withdrawal from the EU will be discussed throughout each session.Aimed at business managers and regulatory specialists in companies that supply articles within the UK and EU. Of particular relevance to companies working through the requirements in the REACH Regulation for finished goods, sub-assemblies and components.
