At IPS We Offer Safety Program Development To Match Our Clients' Current Management System And Structure
Program Development
At IPS we offer Safety Program Development with the ability to develop corporate safety manuals from the ground up or revise them to match our clients’ current management system and structure.
This may be at the field site or in the office, part-time or full-time. It is often more cost effective to hire a qualified safety professional on a part-time basis rather than employ a full-time un-qualified safety practitioner.
Examples of projects that we have undertaken include:
- Complete safety manuals;
- Codes of practice;
- Hazard and risk assessments;
- Hearing conservation programs;
- Custom orientations, including web-based and in-person;
- Fall protection plans; and
- Transportation safety program
