The HSE will be presenting on the subject of Heavy Lifting and explaining legal requirements, planning, examination and competence when using overhead cranes to handle steel stock as well as what to expect from a HSE inspection. The HSE will also be exploring eliminating risks involved Metal Working Fluids and what Inspectors will be looking for when with working with hazardous substances.
The EMF Comp Limited will focus on changes to risk assessments bought about by the Electro Magnetic Fields Directive due to come into force in October 2016 and what this means for Steel Manufacturing. Securus Health and Safety Limited will be conducting a practical session for Practitioners with emphasis on coaching others and collaboration with managers to support them in exercising their responsibilities.

The Seminar will round up with a Question and Answer session with a panel comprised of representatives from the HSE, Metals Forum and the NASS Health and Safety Committee.
