Institution of Occupational Safety and Health Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment International Institute of Risk and Safety Management

Virtual On-Line Course:
These courses are run using the Zoom platform as an interactive course just as our live courses would be. We have had great feedback from delegates on these courses.

Overview
This course provides delegates with a thorough understanding of the health & safety issues associated with the day-to-day maintenance of buildings and associated facilities, plant and equipment. The course will also cover the management of contractors carrying out maintenance work. The trainer will set out clearly the legal responsibilities of all parties and explore through discussion with delegates the practical application of these.

The course will consider all types of maintenance activities and provide a clear understanding of what work is classified as construction under the CDM Regulations. Although the main focus is health & safety, the trainer will explain how health & safety controls need to be integrated into an organisation’s core management processes for them to be effective.

This course is relevant to Building Owners, Building Managers, Maintenance Managers, Facilities Managers, Health & Safety Managers and anyone else who has responsibility for the management and maintenance of buildings and facilities.
