The Health Agenda at Work - a conference
Wednesday 17th February 2010, 9:30am –
4:00pm
NUT Hamilton House, Mabledon Place, London WC1H
9BD
Organised by the Institute of Employment Rights
A tiny percentage of major injuries at work (fewer than 1 in
every 15) now result in a Health and Safety Executive (HSE)
investigation. The numbers of inspectors has dwindled in recent
years, while the numbers of prosecutions taken and enforcement
notices issued have continued to fall dramatically. Continuous
unsustainably low levels of government funding for the HSE mean
worse is likely to come. Come to ther IER conference to hear
updates from specialists in the field and add to the debate on how
we put health and safety at work back on the agenda.
Speakers: Prof Phil James, Oxford Brookes University; Prof Andy
Watterson, Stirling University; Rita Donaghy; Prof Dave Walters,
Cardiff University; Steve Kay, Prospect at HSE; Everald Brown,
London Hazards Centre; Susan Murray, Unite the union; Hope Daley,
Unison; Dr David Whyte, Liverpool University
