As a manager, you have a significant responsibility towards your employees. Promoting safe working practices goes beyond simply knowing the rules; it involves helping your employees to raise their safety awareness and improve their behaviour.

In this training course, managers gain a clear and practical understanding of what legislation on well-being at work expects of them in practice.

We start from the context of your own organization and translate legal frameworks into concrete situations in the workplace.

Contents:
