Process safety certificate pilot Slip resistant footwear
Health, safety and environmental training
specialist RRC International has been chosen
by NEBOSH to help it pilot the NEBOSH HSE
Certificate in Process Safety Management. Because the workplace floor cannot always be
relied on to be non-slip and may be contam-
inated with water, oil, grease, food or other
residues, anti-slip safety shoes are essential
in many industries such as construction,
food manufacturing, offshore oil and gas and
utilities.
This new qualification is designed specifically
for those with safety responsibilities in the
process industries and aims to provide candi-
dates with the knowledge and understanding
they need to contribute effectively to man-
aging process safety risks. The qualification
has been developed through a collaboration
between NEBOSH and the Health and Safety
Executive (HSE).
Wearers of any of RedLion’s 40 different,
sporty, high-performance models, which are
all classified SRC, meaning they have more
than met the specified requirements when
tested on both wet ceramic tiles and steel with
glycerol, can be confident of their safety.
This course is suitable for those who work in
process industries all over the world, such as
oil and gas, chemicals, plastics and phar-
maceuticals. Given the hazardous nature of
these industries, this qualification has been
designed to give managers, supervisors and
safety professionals working in them the
specialist knowledge and understanding they
need to keep their staff, sites and surround-
ings safe. RRC is running pilot courses in both
their London and Dubai training centres. To have maximum slip-resistance, safety
footwear should fit properly, be extremely
comfortable, and have a flexible sole with an
effective tread pattern that grips the floor, no
matter what the conditions. The RedLion is
designed to fulfil all these criteria with ease.
