Qatar Civil Defence will take part in the Qatar HSE & Fire Safety Conference.
With the construction industry going through a transition phase due to the updated Qatar Construction Specifications (QCS) and Fire Safety Codes, Ashghal and Qatar Civil Defence are endorsing and participating at the Qatar HSE & Fire Safety Conference on the 17th and 18th of May at the Marriott Marquis City Center in Doha.
Ehab Saleh, Senior Safety Engineer, Quality & Safety Department, Ashghal, will be addressing the new specifications concerning the conditions and criteria of safety management systems, the prevention of accidents, and the assurance of optimal application at all work sites for the Public Work Authority projects.
The conference will provide a platform for knowledge sharing, networking with specialists in HSE, procurement, project management and fire safety and key government ministers. Participants will gain a better understanding of international standards and how to enforce and comply with local Qatari fire safety codes, resulting in improving occupational health and safety for a sound working environment.
The two-day programme will cover a broad range of relevant topics from evacuation planning for cities to smart safety innovations and latest fire protection technology that will achieve on-time project delivery while maintaining a well-planned health and safety strategy. An interactive session hosted by Clyde & Co will challenge delegates to assess their own processes as real-life examples will highlight the lack of awareness of site accident procedures and reporting obligations. Clyde & Co will share practical tips on how to best manage each step of the process.
