A two-to-three-hour presentation on strategies and the leadership role of CEOs and senior executives in achieving excellent, cost-effective environmental, health, safety and quality (EHSQ) performance. We describe the business case for EHSQ management systems and outline savings opportunities.
Courses that present EHSQ management as good business practice — cost-effective and good for productivity. Managers and supervisors learn the key principles and skills to integrate EHSQ into their overall management role, achieve excellent performance, comply with legislation and promote a workplace culture of excellence.
Courses that give workers the basic information and practices to protect people, property and the environment, while emphasizing productivity, product quality and customer satisfaction. Standard procedures and guidelines are reviewed, covering the topics of an effective EHSQ management program.
