Dear Members,

Room LT401, 4/F, Amenities Building, (next to Swimming pool), City University of Hong Kong
Programme Highlights
On managing workplace health and safety in Hong Kong, a legally-required safety management system incorporates 14 elements. As its name implies, any system, including a safety management system which adopts the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle, necessarily involves system elements and sequential flow, which demands the “Plan” element to precede the other three elements. Similar safety tools, such as the Fault Tree Analysis and Event Tree Analysis adopt the same vertical flow pattern. The Speaker will however focus his presentation on an alternative approach in managing workplace health and safety, using a flat or horizontal mode of safety ideas collection, commonly known in the management field as brainstorming, and propose a combination of the two methodologies.
Speaker Profile
Michael Leung, has been a health and safety practitioner for over 30 years, having worked for the Hong Kong Government and large public organizations. He is a Chartered Safety and Health Practitioner, Chartered Environmentalist, Chartered Builder (U.K.) and Certified Mechanical Engineer (P.R.C.)
