New for 2007 is an exciting, regional health and safety event sponsored by DuPont for the North and South of England.
New for 2007 is an exciting, regional health and safety event sponsored by DuPont for the North and South of England Aimed specifically at regional business communities, Health and Safety 07 provides industrial, commercial and public sector organisations with a cost-effective alternative to the mainstream health and safety shows
With the potential to attract thousands of visitors responsible for the health and safety of their workforce, the new show offers exhibitors a golden opportunity to reach more regional target markets than ever before.
In order to comply with new government legislations and changes in regulations, many employers are finding that they now require new workplace solutions to protect the health and safety of their staff and/or visitors.
Manufacturers are continually developing new products and services to improve people's safety and to encourage people to accept occupational health and safety procedures as part of the working culture.
It is therefore vital for anyone responsible for workplace health and safety to keep abreast of what's going on within the industry.
Exhibitions and seminars are the ideal places to keep on top of industry information, but as Paul Clow at DuPont substantiates, "For many businesses throughout the UK, it is not always practical, time-efficient or cost-efficient to attend national or international venues".
"Budgets cannot always be stretched to include the high cost of exhibition stands, overnight stays and large expense bills, and people's time is very precious".
"At DuPont we are very conscious of the pressures of business - we are therefore delighted to sponsor a show that helps organisations glean information that is crucial to progress the safety of their workforce at venues within a couple of hours drive of their premises." "I see this development as being perfectly aligned with our strategy to bring knowledge and product together".
"Health + Safety 07 gives us the opportunity to team up with other PPE manufacturers bring an even more comprehensive package of education and products to a local audience." Health and Safety 07 provides visitors with: Door-step access to both big and small players in the market; First-hand experience of seeing the very latest safety solutions; The opportunity to learn about new and existing legislative issues; Information on local safety issues; The opportunity to benefit from reduced costs at a smaller venue.
In addition to a wide range of exhibition stands, at each event seminars and a high profile conference will provide visitors with an ideal platform to network, debate, exchange information and keep up to date with a variety of hot topics on a local and national level.
The programme, led by engaging speakers from government bodies, local business groups and other independent organisations will include regional and national safety issues.
Points for discussion will be tailored to address the concerns most relevant in each region at the time, but typical seminar topics will include: Legal and regulatory updates; Risk assessment best practice; Selection, use and maintenance of PPE; Slips, trips and fall prevention.
Health and Safety 07 at Sandown, Surrey and Bolton, Lancashire will attract visitors and exhibitors involved in a vast array of businesses throughout the UK.
So whether your work involves the use of Personal Protective Equipment, respiratory protection, gas detection, fall arrest and prevention, machinery safety, training or first aid, or if you simply need to keep on top of your legal requirements, Health and Safety 07 is the place to be!
