Description

It is often difficult to prove the impact of preventing something, however we can demonstrate the cost to the individual and organisation when something hasn't been prevented - from an issue that remains unresolved to the aftermath of a security incident. We aim to change this thinking to position Duty of Care as important to programmes as wearing a seatbelt has become to safety standards.

Workshop goals:
Participants will leave this workshop with:

  • An understanding of their organisation's duty of care responsibilities
  • How to use duty of care as a prevention and enabling strategy
  • Knowledge of where duty of care sits within the different functional responsibilities – HR, Security, Health & Safety, Legal, management
  • The importance of security within people management and how security risk management and people management work together
  • Learning from HR, Security and Cigna experts on duty of care
  • Good networking opportunities with like-minded people to continue to grow and learn

Who should attend?

This workshop is meant for senior management, HR & Security professionals in not-for-profit organisations.
