In 2012/13, 39 construction workers were killed and 12 of those were self-employed. The nature of the work means there is a high incidence rate, but that doesn't mean it is inevitable any of the two million people working in construction will get injured.
With that in mind, the HSE is running a free seminar designed to make sure workers don’t become an injury statistic. It will be a half day event organised in conjunction with the Staffordshire and Shropshire Working Well Together group. It is taking place at Keele University, Staffordshire, from 8.30am to 12.30pm on Wednesday, 14th May.
A number of experts and HSE representatives will be giving talks, including Roger Willey, Managing Director of ACS Physical Risk Control Ltd.
If you would like to attend please contact Anne Twigg or Janet Gibson at the HSE on 01782 602300.
