In brief:

The new Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act is now in force. By removing the requirement of a ‘controlling mind or will’ for an offence to occur, it means the scope for prosecution has been widened and HR departments must respond to these changes. Failing to address effectively the issue of health and safety within the workplace and carry out continued risk assessment could lead to serious unwanted implications for employers - it is essential that HR review their policies and procedures and get to grips with the new law to help prevent unwanted costly sanctions in their organisation. 

JSB’s new half-day workshop provides a complete overview of the new legislation and offers practical advice for HR on how to create a health and safety culture within their company. What is the new law? Who is a senior manager in your organisation? How can you prepare for an internal enquiry? This half-day workshop in association with leading law firm Kennedy’s will help to  answer these key questions for HR and offer best practice advice for managing within the law.

Designed for:

HR Professionals, Health and Safety Managers, Compliance Officers, Legal Advisers, In-House Lawyers, Managing Directors and Employee Relations Specialists
