Branch Event 2012: If Only!

Your major incident learning journey

This year we are holding an event on Wednesday 13 June at the West Wing, Ickworth House, Horringer, IP29 5QE.

About this event

Please note that this programme may be subject to minor changes.

The event will initially look at the commercial and personal impact of a major incident through real and simulated events. Following this, by using interactive theatre, an event will be played out and delegates will be able to take part in the process of identifying failures that led to the major incident. Using the experiences of the presenters, delegates will be able to reflect on the incidents and apply what they learn to their own workplace.

The Health and Safety Executive will discuss the wider aspects of what happens in the aftermath of a major incident and the impact it could have on you. We will also focus on what good risk management looks like from an insurer's perspective. Our opening and closing keynote speakers will talk about the effects of an incident on a safety-conscious organisation and on the importance of strong leadership in both preventing and managing major incidents.

Who is it for?

• health and safety practitioners
• health and safety consultants
• senior managers
• safety/elected representatives
• local authority enforcement officers
• insurance representatives
• emergency planners
• anyone interested in major incident management.
