Introduction
Managing Safely is designed for managers and supervisors in any sector and in organisations of all sizes. They won’t suddenly become safety experts – but they’ll get up-to-speed on the practical actions they need to take and gain the knowledge and tools to tackle the safety and health issues they’re responsible for.
