Safety on Trial
How well could you defend yourself in court?
Do your directors, executives and senior managers understand what is required to construct a defence against a criminal health and safety prosecution?
We can create an interactive event for your organisation where attendees will gain a first-hand experience of what happens in court and how cases are lost or won. Led by an ex-senior HSE inspector, who is also an experienced expert witness, this event is based on a scenario that could occur in your business. The ten participants take on the roles of a defence team, witnesses and magistrates, whilst our expert takes on the role of prosecutor.
The day is specifically designed for your organisation ensuring that the learning is reality based. Care is taken to identify the essential lessons, with the emphasis that prevention is preferable to defending a prosecution. Innovative, demanding and challenging best describes the experience, however, humour and dramatics are not excluded. Your executive groups' grasp of their role in defending your organisation's health and safety performance, its reputation and the wellbeing of your staff will be enhanced as they recognise the vulnerability of their position and that of the business.
This investment in your senior managers provides a positive learning experience as it creates a new perspective on a familiar subject. This workshop is ideal for directly challenging complacency or blasé attitudes.
Trust Hastam to deliver effectively the message, to your senior managers, that everyday their management of safety is on trial.
