Safety Representatives (Employee Consultation)
 By appointing safety/employee representatives and setting up a safety committee, employers can meet their legal duty to consult with employees on matters relating to health and safety at work. Representatives can prove a useful addition to the workforce by assisting in accident investigations, representing employees and disseminating information. Safety committees can be invaluable in driving the health and safety management system and contributing to a positive safety culture.HSE actively encourage worker involvement in making decisions about managing health and safety in the workplace, reinforcing the role of safety/employee representatives and creating genuine partnerships between managers, safety representatives and the wider workforce. |
Who should attend? Newly appointed or existing trade union/non trade union representatives looking to fill their role to maximum effect. Also ideal for members of safety committees. What will the delegate bring back to the workplace? ● An understanding of the role of safety/employee representatives and the safety committee ● Knowledge of the legal requirements for health and safety, including criminal and civil liabilities ● The employer’s requirement to consult employees ● A thorough understanding of the need for accident reporting and investigation ● How to analyse hazards and risks in the workplace ● How to make a positive contribution to the continuous improvement of workplace health and safety.
