It can be a daunting task for many organizations to develop and maintain an effective occupational health and safety system that protects workers, complies with legislation and limits exposure to criminal and civil liability. Supervisors have a key role to play in this process. They also have very specific legal duties and responsibilities for workplace health and safety.

The course material covers the following topics:
-
The terms due diligence, competent person and supervisor as they relate to the supervisor's role
-

-

-
