SHOW PREVIEW
THE HEALTH & SAFETY EVENT IS BACK
Organisers of The Health & Safety Event 2017, Western Business Exhibitions,
tell us of the event’s expansion, complete with new programme features and more alliances with industry organisations.
Visitors to The Health & Safety Event will encounter a wider array of seminars, features and exhibitors than ever before. The 2017 conference and exhibition, which runs from 21st to 23rd March at Birmingham NEC, aims to provide professionals from all over the UK with an unparalleled insight into the latest trends and developments affecting the health and safety sector.
The event shares its location with three other exhibitions – Maintec 2017, Facilities Management 2017 and the newly-launched Fire Safety Event – enabling visitors to maximise their visit.
New features of The Health and Safety Event include an exciting partnership with the British Safety Industry Federation (BSIF), which has chosen to stage the BSIF Safety Awards at the event for the first time. The BSIF will invite entrants in its Product Innovation Awards to pitch their products to a judging panel in front of a live audience before announcing the winners. As well as supporting The Health and Safety Event for the first time, the BSIF will also have a strong role in subsequent events – Scotland Works in Glasgow, May 2017, and Health and Safety North in Manchester, October 2017.
