Hazards are a feature of every workplace, whether you work in a factory, on a construction site, or even in an office. Identifying hazards in the workplace means that you can put the proper health and safety precautions in place to keep you and your colleagues safe.
Risk assessment is a primary management tool in ensuring the health and safety of workers (and others). What many people perhaps are not aware of, however, is that they are actually a legal requirement for employers and certain self-employed people.
Risk mitigation is a strategy employed by organisations to prepare for and lessen potential risks that a business may face. It overlaps significantly with risk reduction, where threats are identified before steps are taken to reduce these risks.

In the UK, around 5,000 people die from asbestos-related conditions (chiefly lung cancers and Mesothelioma) each year. While annual fatalities have remained around the 5000 mark for several years, the long shadow cast by asbestos has not yet reached its full height.
From entry-level health and safety courses that provide practical foundations, to sector and role-specific training, health and safety offers something for everyone, regardless of role or seniority. These skills help to establish a safety culture, make employees more risk-aware, and raise standards through individual and collective responsibility.
Between 2022 and 2023, 40 workers lost their lives falling while working at height, making this the leading cause of UK workplace deaths that year. Worryingly, this was 11 deaths more than the previous year and 5 deaths above the 5-year average, so it’s clear that action is needed if we want a future free from falls.
To enable leaders to thrive in our ever-changing and dynamic environment, managing risks effectively, strengthening board decisions, leaders need to build knowledge, flexibility and capacity.
With a growing population from 8 billion in November 2022 to a predicted 9.7 billion by 2050, there is an increased demand for green jobs to support the green transition. Are you ready?
