Programme announced for IOSH 2016

IOSHCONFimageThe programme for the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health’s (IOSH) annual conference has been revealed.

Focused on leadership, delegates will get access to 60+ expert speakers from a wide range of sectors and specialisms.

IOSH 2016, Influential leadership: delivering impact – sustaining change, is the third conference focused on leadership, a theme which continues to resonate with safety and health professionals and business leaders alike because of its importance to organisational success.

Delegates will find out how to inspire and influence internal and external stakeholders to integrate safety and health into the fabric of their organisation on 21-22 June at ExCeL London.

Sir Clive Woodward, who won the Rugby World Cup as England coach in 2003, will be a keynote speaker while TV and radio journalist Tanya Beckett will chair the conference.

Conference delegates will be able to tailor the programme to suit their learning and development needs by choosing sessions from four tracks.

Four tracks

Track A: ‘How to influence – internally and externally’, will include speakers such as Malcolm Staves, corporate health and safety director of L’Oreal; and Dr Shaun Lundy, academic portfolio leader for the Department of Built Environment at the University of Greenwich.

Track B: ‘Business risk and resilience’ and will include presentations from Mary Lawrence, head of health and safety at Osborne Clark; and Magnus Carter, founder of Mentor Ltd.

Track C: ‘Innovation across programmes, strategy and technology’ will see presentations from Seamus Keogh, chief operating officer at Clancy Docwra; and Paul Williams, head of health and safety at Peabody, will be among speakers.

Track D: ‘Positioning for the future’ will feature presentations by Michael Emery, SHE manager for Secure Health and Safety; and John Green, director HSE, Laing O’Rourke Europe.

There will also be plenary sessions over the two days, with topics including IOSH’s Occupational Safety and Health Excellence scheme and the health of the nation.

IOSH president Dr Karen McDonnell said: “I am delighted that several high-profile speakers are already on a programme which will be rich in content, vital information and inspirational case studies.”
