Why attend the IOSH 1-Day Conference?

  • Gain CPD you can actually use
    Every session is designed around the challenges OSH professionals are dealing with today - not theory for theory's sake. You'll leave with ideas, frameworks and approaches you can put to work the moment you're back in the office.
     
  • Hear from senior practitioners and subject-matter experts
    Speakers include the IOSH President, an IOSH Vice-President chairing a legal panel, a CFIOSH partner director on human factors, and a national youth employment expert on generational risk - all in one day.
     
  • Get clarity on AI before it gets ahead of you
    The IOSH Conference includes a live, practical session on how AI tools are already being applied across real health and safety workflows. See how others are doing it, and what it could mean for your organisation.
     
  • Understand where the law on mental health is heading
    With legal expectations around mental health continuing to grow, this conference gives you a clear, expert view of where your duties begin, where the risk sits, and what you need to have in place.
