Electrical Safety Management
Understand your responsibilities and create an effective safety culture

26th June 2013 - Austin Court, Birmingham

Speakers:
  • Bill Bates - HM Principal Specialist Inspector (Electrical Engineering) Health and Safety Executive
  • Windsor Coles OBE CEng FIET, Consulting Engineer (Ex Principal Specialist Inspector, Electrical Engineering, Health and Safety Executive) Coles Associates Ltd 
  • John X Officer - Lead Electrical Engineer, GlaxoSmithKline Global Manufacturing and Supply
  • Greig Thomas - Lead Electrical Engineer, GlaxoSmithKline, Irvine
  • Graham Nicol BSc IEng MIET Tech IOSH MBIFM MInstRE - Health, Safety & Environmental Director, Jacobs UK Ltd
  • Graham Barker FIET - Formerly Infrastructure and Power Systems Manager, Shell International Oil & Gas Exploration.
  • Bernard Quigg CEng FIET - Consulting Engineer 

Managing electrical safety implies dealing with disasters when they happen but much more importantly preventing them happening in the first place.

It is impracticable for any individual to know all the legislation, standards, regulations, codes of practice, procedures, etc. This is particularly difficult for engineering managers in international organisations where various national practices can clash. This seminar is about creating a strong electrical safety culture to avoid accidents. It also accepts that in large multisite operations problems will occur and suggests how to minimise the impact when things do go wrong. While based on UK practice, the speakers bring a practical and multinational flavour to the topics.
