Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) in infrastructure
Prevention must start with real working situations. Identify hazards, assess risks and choose appropriate actions to protect people better. Strengthen your ability to organise the approach, involve stakeholders and monitor the measures selected.

Presentation
Infrastructure operation and maintenance require rigorous integration of Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) considerations. Beyond compliance alone, the aim is to protect people and facilities sustainably against increasingly complex operational risks.
This 3-day course provides methodological tools for deploying an effective prevention policy aligned with international standards such as ISO 45001 and ISO 14001. You will learn to identify hazards using recognised methods, including HAZID and JSA, and manage your sites' environmental performance.
By the end of the programme, you will be able to develop a practical HSE action plan tailored to your context. You will have the tools to establish a genuine safety culture and significantly reduce accidents within technical teams.
Objectives
By the end of this infrastructure HSE course, you will be able to:
- define the strategic priorities and scope of HSE within infrastructure management;
- apply international standard and regulatory requirements, including ISO 45001 and ISO 14001;
- deploy risk analysis methods such as HAZID and JSA to make interventions safer;
- implement measures to prevent musculoskeletal disorders and psychosocial risks;
- manage environmental performance through waste, discharge and energy resource management;
- develop and monitor a coherent HSE action plan for continuous improvement.
