About this course
This one-day course is designed to help those on site with responsibility for supervising all forms of temporary works. The course aims to improve the knowledge of this role and the temporary works environment.
Temporary works on both smaller and larger sites can be high-risk activities. Therefore, understanding the essentials of good risk and safety management, as outlined in BS 5975:2024, is relevant for projects of all sizes.
Temporary works are safety and business-critical and require careful co-ordination. An accepted way of achieving this is through the adoption of the management process outlined in BS 5975:2024, which introduces the temporary works supervisor (TWS) as a key figure. This course explains the role and its overall management context.
The development of this course was supported by several organisations, including the Temporary Works Forum and the Health and Safety Executive.
