Control of Work

Overview

In large facilities where multiple tasks are performed simultaneously, the management of work is essential to ensure that these are accomplished safely. Poor control of work has resulted in many accidents and fatalities over the years.

This course will help you understand that a robust Control of Work process could have helped in preventing these accidents.
