The extreme environments that many of the workers face can create all sorts of issues relating to their health and safety. Failing to implement good HSE policies and procedures could be an expensive mistake.
By implementing a well-designed health, safety and environment (HSE) system, a company can keep occupational illnesses, diseases and injuries, as well as losses and work disruptions caused by exposures or accidents, to a minimum - while avoiding damage to its reputation at the same time. HSE is increasingly seen as an integral management task and, indeed, as an important indicator of general management competence.
“According to International Labour Organisation statistics, there are 2.3 million work related deaths each year worldwide and 350,000 fatal accidents. The economic costs of accidents and ill health at work amounts to 4% of the world's gross domestic product” says Petra Konova, Conference Production Manager with Jacob Fleming. Hence, with our 5th Annual HSE Forum in Oil, Gas & Petrochemicals we are taking a step further to serve the industry by addressing the growing HSE challenges and focusing on acquiring solutions on how to prevent work related accidents under the guidance of a strong advisory committee”
Taking place over 4 days, the Forum aims to follow in the foot steps of the outstanding success of the 2008 4th Annual HSE Meeting where over 150 regional and international senior level HSE professionals gathered to share their opinions and insights with their industry peers!
This series of Forums has proven itself to be the focal point for discussion on the best practices, innovative solutions and creative ideas on successful HSE compliance.
An enriched speaker panel (leading industrial figures from renowned organisations like Saudi Aramco, Qatar Petroleum, Dolphin Energy, Kuwait Petroleum Corporation, BAPCO, United Nations Environment Program, Ministry of Health –Bahrain, BP, etc) and due support of IOSH and our premium sponsors (Integrum, BST, MSA-The Safety Co, YMS Group, College of North Atlantic Qatar) contributed immensely to the overwhelming success of the forum last year. Key highlights of the conference were case studies and presentations on the incredible story of Rough Bravo offshore platform, how to make driving safely – a way of life, how to prevent injury at workplace etc.
The 2009 HSE Forum will be focusing much more on INTERACTIVITY. Interactive Sessions, C-level Panel Discussion, 4 workshops (2 pre and 2 post-conference)
