Health and Safety Representatives and Committees

Health and safety works best when the people doing the job help to shape it. South African law turns that idea into a structure: elected representatives who inspect and speak up, and a committee where employer and employee members solve problems together. This course shows you how to set up that structure correctly and make it useful, not just compliant.
