Managing Safely for Managers
The Managing Safely for Managers course equips managers with the knowledge and skills to oversee workplace safety effectively. It covers risk assessment, hazard identification, incident investigation, and legal responsibilities, helping managers ensure safety compliance, reduce risks, and promote a safe working environment.
What is the Managing Safely for Managers?
The Managing Safely for Managers course from the American Institute of Safety Professionals provides safety competency training specifically designed for managers whose primary function is NOT safety but who carry safety accountability as part of their management role. Every manager operations, production, maintenance, HR, finance, logistics is accountable for the safety of the people they manage. Yet most managers receive no safety training beyond the basic awareness provided to all workers. This course closes that gap by teaching the safety competencies managers need: understanding their legal obligations, conducting risk assessments, investigating incidents, managing safety performance, and leading safety culture. The curriculum covers the manager’s legal and moral safety obligations, understanding how safety management systems work, risk assessment for managers (identifying hazards in their areas, evaluating risk, implementing controls), incident investigation from the manager’s perspective (what went wrong in the system, not just what the worker did), safety performance management (metrics, reporting, resource allocation), leading safety culture (visible leadership, communication, recognition, accountability), managing contractors and visitors in their areas, and the practical safety decisions managers face daily. All training is delivered 100 percent online through Microsoft Teams and the American Institute of Safety Professionals LMS. Upon completion, graduates receive a certificate, wallet card, and transcript, employer-verifiable at amiosp.com/student-verifications.
