BPF Health and Safety Online Seminar 2020

Now more than ever, minds are focused on health and safety issues. This Health and Safety event, kindly sponsored by LG Energy, covers all that plastics manufacturers need to know when it comes to looking after their staff, whether that means their general wellbeing, COVID-19, noise control, managing ‘creeping hazards’ or understanding the very latest thinking on risk assessment.

Expert speakers from a range of organisations such as the Health and Safety Executive, Oil and Gas UK, and the Energy Institute will provide detailed insights into effectively managing the health and safety of your staff in an increasingly complex landscape.
