Introduction
Managing contractor safety can be an intensely difficult task, particularly as owners send mixed messages to contractors. As owners, we demand getting the job done quickly and safely while budgets are squeezed to the limits to manage cost, often at the expense of EH&S.
Today owners are more invested than ever in improving the EH&S performance of contractors. This so because contractors perform on average ~80% of the work done on industrial and commercial work sites. More importantly, contractors are often hurt or killed in the workplace at a frequency 3-4 times that of employees.
This workshop is designed to help personnel involved in managing contractor’s performance better understand the principles for improving EH&S performance.
The principles discussed in this workshop are tried and tested and will deliver strong EH&S performance in any work environment.
