We’ll be attending the Northern Ireland Safety Group Spring Conference!
…
SPRING CONFERENCE
Date 18 May 2011
Location Stormont Hotel, Belfast
HEALTH AND SAFETY IN CHALLENGING TIMES
Achieving excellence in workplace health and safety is something that we all should aspire to, both from a moral and economic perspective, but turning the theory into practice is not always easy. The aim of the conference is to do just that by bringing together an experienced and knowledgeable panel of speakers who will demonstrate through presentations and case studies how to successfully deal with a number of key issues. You will then be in a position to consider how you might apply the right risk management techniques to your own working environment..
Topics covered will include the way forward for health and safety and how the current economic situation may impact on the management of stress in the workplace. Interactive sessions including case studies dealing with safe maintenance and fire risk assessment will also be included.
.
This Conference is organised through a partnership of the Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland (HSENI), the Northern Ireland Safety Group (NISG), the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH), the Northern Ireland Committee of the Irish Congress of Trade Unions (NIC/ICTU) and Belfast City Council representing the District Councils of Northern Ireland.

Builder blames employees for safety failings
A builder has appeared in court for risking the safety of his employees and members of the public by leaving a structure in danger of collapse.
Ian Behagg was refurbishing two terraced houses in Lincoln city centre as part of work to convert them into flats. On 9 February 2010, officers from the local council’s building control team visited the site and became concerned that structural elements of the building posed risks to safety.
The council subsequently relayed their concerns to the HSE, who visited the site the following day with a structural engineer. The inspection found that not only had internal supporting walls and structures been removed but temporary supports had been erected in the wrong places, which had resulted in cracks starting to appear on the building. They also found that Behagg, who had assumed the responsibilities of site manager, had not carried out an asbestos survey before starting the work.
Behagg was subsequently issued two Prohibition Notices, which required work to stop until a competent site manager had been appointed, and an asbestos survey had been conducted.
HSE inspector Stephen Farthing said: “Mr Behagg’s blatant disregard for health and safety put both workers and members of the public in danger. Had the building collapsed, the consequences might have been fatal.
“HSE will continue to clamp down on small construction companies that fail to take the health and safety of their employees and the public seriously.”
Appearing at Lincoln Magistrates’ Court on 7 February, Behagg blamed his employees for the safety breaches as it was they who were carrying out the work. He nevertheless admitted to breaching reg. 28(1) and reg. 28(2) of the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2007, for allowing employees to work in and around an unsafe structure, and for not having in place adequate temporary supports.
Behagg also said he had no previous convictions and had complied with both Prohibition Notices.
He was fined £1000 for each offence and ordered to pay £1053 towards costs.
