Course Title : IOSH: Managing Safely in the Exhibition and Events Industry

in conjunction with X Venture Risk Management Solutions

Who Should Attend

For those who are involved in organising events and exhibitions including those who provide and manage facilties/venues. Category 1 and 2 Responders are also encouraged to attend.

Aims and Objectives

The IOSH Managing Safely course is now the base level health and safety standard for all operational managers and supervisors within the events industry. Your employer has a legal duty to ensure staff are competent in health and safety terms, and this will fulfil the formal training aspect of that requirement. The wider aim, however, is more than a certificate for its own sake. The specific aim is to ensure you receive the formal training requirement for competence relative to the level of your health and safety responsibility and to ensure you fully understand the realities of risk management at events.

The specific aims are as follows:

• Explain the legal and contractual obligations with regards to event safety management.
• Apply the risk management process regarding event safety management.
• Conduct a detailed event risk assessment.
• Conduct a simple accident investigation.
• Discharge the health and safety responsibilities of an event manager or event duty manager.
• Analyse health and safety data.
• Plan for emergencies.

Assessment, Project and Certification

During the course there will be two mock assessments to confirm key knowledge and to familiarise delegates with the format and style of questions. The end of course assessment will comprise a 45 minute written assessment to confirm the key knowledge. All assessments will take place under exam conditions with an invigilator. Delegates will be required to carry out a written risk assessment project within two weeks of completing the course which will be assessed. Delegates will be required to pass both assessments before an IOSH certificate can be awarded.
