The Confidence In The Controls The Interesting Health & Safety Podcast
-
- Health & Fitness
This week, Colin talks about risk assessment, and why it might be time to overhaul our systems, so that we may more accurately measure the confidence we have in the procedures in place.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Typical examinations of risk assessments in the workplace are generally rather dull and uninspired. What is missing is the confidence in the controls.
Rather than assessing the effectiveness of the controls, we should also measure the confidence we have in the controls.
BEST MOMENTS
'This is something we often overlook'
'If you're putting something down, it's got to have value'
