Small or major events require risk assessment training
No company’s small or major event is immune to the need for workstation risk assessment training. The upcoming Olympic Games may be the event to make this clear. As athletes arrive from around the world, security has been upgraded including the dispatch of Army chiefs to the headquarters of G4S. The chiefs have to take on a larger and more active role to make certain security is controlled throughout the game. The army has a 250 million pound contract to ensure the games are well guarded. Many police officers have also been dispatched to ensure the security of the games.
If you own a business, you might be able to take a lesson from the mobilisation of security for the games. The UK government spent millions of pounds and hours conducting risk assessments in order to manage these risks while people attend the games. While you might not have to spend more than an eight hour day on your workstation risk assessments it is important that you focus on the proper management of these risks to ensure the public and your employees are safe at all times.
You also have to have a new plan for each event you might have in your company. For instance, if you run a service style business such as catering, you will need to come up with a plan for that event and make certain you utilise your workstation risk assessment training to ensure proper safety and health during the catering event. Since the foods, event space, and attendees can be different each time, there is a lot to prepare for.
