Being ahead of the curve when it comes to safety management in transport operations relies on adopting practices and procedures, which follow the basic principles of continuous improvement. In other words a gradual, incremental and consistent approach to ensure those operations are fully compliant and run professionally.

The preference of a carrot, rather than stick approach protects those that work in the industry, the wider public and the reputation of the operator. A commitment to review and analyse the reality of risk in transport operations alongside ensuring sufficient resources and support are available ensures a satisfactory outcome for all involved. From effective training to sound, practical legal advice.

The CILT East Midlands Region with kind sponsors Woodfines LLP, Medequip, Howden and Safety Rocks are therefore delighted to be hosting the following event.

The interactive event to be held at the excellent Hazard Alley Safety Centre in Milton Keynes will ask

· What does an engaging and effective safety culture in transport operations mean?

· How do we transform from reactive to proactive when it comes to this culture?

· Where does all this relate to real operational environments.
