A new seminar "Permissioning regimes and safety cases - do they enhance safety?" will be held at One Birdcage Walk in London on 17th October 2003 The UK HSE regulates health and safety in a number of high hazard industries through what can loosely be termed "permissioning" regimes

The approach is characterised by requirements on the duty holder to document in advance the hazards, risks and measures to eliminate or control them (often called a safety case); and on the safety regulator to examine the adequacy of these arrangements.

This is an ideal opportunity to discuss with knowledgeable professionals from different industries what more can be done to improve the effectiveness of permissioning regimes.

Those attending will be able to ask questions, raise issues and share their personal experiences of preparing and implementing the safety cases and safety reports required to comply with permissioning regimes.
