The workshop objective is to train technical personnel how to perform an objective investigation to determine what happened in an incident. The course is oriented to incidents in chemical processing facilities. The discussion will include smaller incidents that are primarily investigated by operating company personnel to major incidents that require outside resources. The prime objective is to teach the thought processes and methodologies of experienced investigators. The focus of the course is on investigations to determine WHAT happened and the probable hypothesis of causal events. The course will emphasize the key role the investigator plays for complete, accurate and detailed investigations. The course will not explore root cause methodologies often employed to determine WHY an incident occurred.

Key participants and target audience include the following:

● Technical and Engineering (process/ mechanical/ control and electrical) personnel who are expected to lead or be a member of an incident investigation team

● Subject matter experts (e.g. machinery, design or process technology) who may be seconded to an incident investigation

● Senior personnel and/or HSSE leaders who require an appreciation of the nature and extent of an incident investigation on a processing facility

The objectives of this workshop are to provide participants the following:

● Investigation approach - guidelines, scientific method, sources of evidence, basing conclusions on facts, examples of evidence, dealing with apparently conflicting evidence

● Investigation process – investigation team formation, initial hypothesis development, time sensitive evidence, initial documentation

● Systematic data collection – photo and video, protocols for evidence evaluation, evidence management, document collection

● Hypothesis development and analysis – formulating hypotheses based on observations and facts, action plans to investigate hypotheses, validating important data, testing scenarios,

● Final hypothesis - proving/disproving hypotheses, resolving the final hypothesis

● Student exercises – students will be given exercises to practice some to the methodologies taught using a hypothetical incident

If we really want to improve safety in the workplace, we must focus on ways and means to improve Contractor Safety. For those of us who have been involved in working to improve contractor safety, we know this is an intensely difficult task, particularly as owners send mixed messages to contractors. As owners, we demand getting the job done quickly and safely while budgets are squeezed to the limits to manage cost, often at the expense of EH&S.

Today owners are more invested than ever in improving the EH&S performance of contractors. This so because contractors perform on average ~80% of the work performed on industrial and commercial worksites.

This workshop is designed to help personnel involved in managing contractor’s performance better understand and implement practical principles for improving Contractor Safety performance. The principles discussed in this workshop are tried and tested and will deliver improvements in contractor safety performance in any work environment

Key participants and target audience include the following:

● Senior leaders including Vice Presidents and General Managers

● Supply Chain Managers and Team Members

● Construction and EPC Contracting Organizations

● Contractors – EH&S and field personnel

● Project management team members involved in leading and managing contractors

● EH&S leaders and team members

The objectives of this workshop are to provide participants the following:

● Introduction to Contractor Safety Management – How to get the best from contractors and Sub-contractors

● Defining Contract Scope of Work – Writing for Users

Health workers are people engaged in actions whose primary intent is to enhance health. They include direct providers of care (doctors and nurses), management (financial officers) and support staff (cooks, housekeepers and security). Health workers are largely employed in acute and long-term care facilities, but also work in community-based, home-care and informal settings.

The prevention and control of occupational risks for health workers require systems for managing occupational safety and health in all health facilities and workplaces in the health sector.

The World Health Organization and the International labour Organization have developed several tools for improving working conditions in health care facilities, ranging from national programmes for occupational health of health workers, and a standard for accreditation of health care facilities, a toolkit for work improvement in healthcare facilities, recommendations for addressing individual occupational hazards (HIV, TB, violence) and for vaccination of health workers, and a manual for occupational safety and health in public health emergencies

Key participants and target audience include the following:

● Policy and decision makers in national health systems

● Organizations of workers and employers in the health system

● Managers of healthcare facilities

● Focal points for occupational health and safety in healthcare facilities

● Estimating scenario frequencies

● Experts from occupational health services for healthcare facilities

The objectives of this workshop are to provide participants the following:

● Common occupational health and safety risks for health workers

● Development of a national programme for occupational health fo health workers

● Occupational health standard for accreditation of health care facilities

● Work improvement in health care facilities

● Occupational health and safety in public health emergencies5-6 bullet points only

At the time of any disaster, businesses are challenged not just to mitigate the immediate impacts of the disaster; they must also ensure continuity of business operations and minimize the time it takes to restore normal operating conditions. As such, it is critically essential to build a “playbook” that is comprehensive and effective, and one that is reliable and calculated to address any business disruption consequence. Enter Continuity of Operations (COOP) through Intelligence and Resilience

The Team from the International Association of Fire Chief’s (IAFC) will discuss how to achieve “resilience” through the use of the National Incident Management System (NIMS), and Consequence Management best practices used in the United States to protect critical operations, resources and services in the event of unexpected disasters.

In addition, the IAFC team, along with their IAFC NMAS partner, Esri, will present how the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) intelligence is used to build resilience, and ensure continuity of operations post-disaster.

Key participants and target audience include the following:

● Fire and Rescue Managers

● Police Managers

● Civil Defence Managers

● Safety Managers

● Emergency Managers

● Security Managers

The objectives of this workshop are to provide participants the following:

● An overview of the National Incident Management System (NIMS) used to protect organizations from unexpected disasters and business disruptions

● Discuss and provide case studies on Consequence Management best practices.

● How to develop comprehensive, effective and reliable COOP playbooks

● Use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) systems intelligence applications

● Overview of the IAFC National Mutual Aid System and who this system may be deployed internationally
