Tourism giant turns to IOSH to protect workers

Red Sea Global approached IOSH as part of its commitment to sustainable development and managing the risks to workers on its giga projects.

As well as being a chartered professional body, IOSH is a leading developer of health and safety training courses. The courses are taken by people at all organisational levels around the world.

Nearly 450 of Red Sea Global’s workers will undertake IOSH’s Working safely course in the coming year. The courses will be delivered in either English or Hindi.

Participants at the Red Sea and AMAALA destinations in Saudi Arabia will not only learn to identify any safety and health hazards they encounter. Their training will enable them to take action to prevent harm to themselves and others.

Commitment to safe working

Iain McIntosh, IOSH's Senior Business Development Manager, said: “Red Sea Global are fully committed to protecting people working on their projects so got in touch with us about our Working safely course.

"It’s encouraging to us that developers like Red Sea Global take safety and health so seriously. They share our belief that no one should be harmed at work.

“The course is a programme which demonstrates the basics of health and safety at work. It enables delegates to be able to identify and define hazards and risks in the workplace.

“We are very excited about this programme. Being able to deliver it in both English and Hindi means it is relevant for a large proportion of the workforce.”
