As a member of the Access Industry Forum (AIF), NASC will be presenting at the IOSH Conference and Exhibition which this year takes place at the Excel Exhibition and Conference Centre, London, 15-16 March 2011.

The Forum comprises the nine principal trade associations and federations committed to advancing safety, best practice and competency when working at height. At IOSH 11 it will promote its key message of ‘Work safely and competently at height using appropriate equipment with personnel professionally trained to industry-recognised standards’.

From its stand, F95, all 9 members will be on hand to provide advice and guidance on all matters relating to working at height.

On day 1 (15th March) through out the whole day the AIF will also present various topics relating to current working at height topical matters in Spotlight Theatre 2. At 3.30pm in the theatre the NASC will be detailing the changes to the recent guidance introduction SG4:10 and also reiterate the implications of TG20:08. The NASC will also be taking part in the “Ask the Experts” question and answer session at 12.30pm.

IOSH is the chartered body for health and safety professionals. With more than 35,000 members in 85 countries, it is the world’s biggest professional health and safety organisation. Founded in 1945, it is a registered charity with international NGO status and an independent not-for-profit organisation.
