It has long been recognised, and is the general consensus of opinion, that health and safety is not the most interesting of subjects. This is probably one of the reasons why in many organisations, the approach to health and safety is somewhat reactive, that is, health and safety is only addressed following a significant event.
Before commencing this session you should have knowledge of:
- The dental practice health and safety policy
- The health and safety management process within your own dental practice
