💡 Why Attend? 👇

Safety decisions matter. In this interactive event, you’ll take part in a live, actor-led scenario where the choices you make will determine the outcome of a workplace incident. This hands-on experience will highlight the impact of clear communication and strong safety leadership.

To support you in making informed decisions, all frontline workers will receive coaching on how to lead more inclusive and effective toolbox talks and pre-job briefs—ensuring that safety conversations drive real engagement and understanding.

The event will also include expert insights and industry updates, including:

✔️ Unlocking the Potential of the North Sea – Key developments from OEUK

✔️ Process Safety Leadership – Findings from the latest HSE report

✔️ Human Factors in Toolbox Talks – Practical strategies for better engagement

✔️ The Role of Safety Reps in Preventing Incidents – Strengthening workplace safety

This is an opportunity to refine your approach, gain valuable knowledge, and make a real impact on shaping safer workplaces.
