Events
Events are a unique operational environment that cannot be catered for by a conventional risk approach.
The adage ‘you don’t know what you don’t know’ may well apply if you do not engage an event specialist.
Add to this mix that most event builds are in essence construction zones with marquees, scaffold structures, working at heights and a number of other industrial related activities taking place. With multiple contractors on site at any one time pre event where is your focus, on the build or the upcoming event?
Warwick Has developed and implemented full safety systems for all manner of events. All documentation is written consistent with ISO 45001:2018 Occupational Health and Safety Management and ISO 31000:2009 Risk Management standard. This provides host country, event owners and participants the confidence that all operations are at the highest level, reputation is not only assured, it is enhanced.
He has a very broad experience base ranging from community to world events. Having run his own he is very aware of the inherent risks . With this in mind, engaging a professional to examine your documentation, pre-qualify contractors and operationally audit your systems can only serve to enhance reputation, safety and compliance.
The following services are available to you:
- Review existing Safety Management Systems consistent with Health and Safety Legislation.
- Conduct Safety Audits for Festivals and Events.
- Advise management and staff of their ongoing obligations and necessary commitment to Health and Safety at Work.
