Motor-vehicle plants combine high-speed automation, heavy machinery, robotics, hazardous substances, and complex logistics. This one-day intensive programme equips engineers, line supervisors, HSE practitioners, and maintenance staff with the knowledge and practical tools to keep people safe, meet regulatory obligations, and foster a proactive safety culture across stamping, body-in-white, paint, power-train, and final-assembly lines.

By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:

• Interpret applicable global and local regulations for automotive plants.
• Perform structured hazard and risk assessments on any production cell.
• Apply best-practice safeguards for robots, presses, conveyors, and battery-assembly stations.
• Select and implement ergonomic and chemical-handling controls specific to paint and assembly operations.
• Develop robust LOTO and emergency-response procedures.
• Investigate incidents using root-cause tools and implement sustainable corrective actions.
• Lead shop-floor safety conversations and drive continuous improvement through data-driven KPIs.

• Production & maintenance engineers
• Line leaders and shift supervisors
• Health, Safety & Environment (HSE) officers
