4 Q4 Can you suggest any improvements you would like to see from your Merseyside Branch meetings? Answered: 19 Skipped: 14 # Responses Date 1 alternate venues - with some on the Liverpool side of the river 11/2/2015 8:32 AM 2 It is well run 11/1/2015 7:25 PM 3 Site visits are always worthwhile 10/30/ :53 AM 4 Maybe having one meeting that discusses what practice is in certain areas and how this can be achieved. Or most improved business and how this has come about. 5 In my opinion in the last 12 months there have been some really great improvements in the standard of the presentations and content.....carry on as before 10/29/2015 3:33 PM 10/29/ :53 AM 6 Is there any possibility of holding meetings in North Merseyside or in Liverpool 10/29/ :14 AM 7 For them to get back to being more structured with the Chair wearing the branch medallion in recognition of his position in the branch 10/28/ :42 PM 8 Not sure as its difficult to please all the people all of the time. 10/28/2015 2:00 PM 9 More central location for meetings. Alternate meeting venue. 10/28/2015 9:11 AM 10 None of any significance. 10/27/2015 8:40 PM 11 Yes, I would like to see them lobby for a change in legislation which allows so called "competent" people to inspect scaffolding. I have lost count of the number of times where scaffolder's have been allowed to inspect their own work only for me to identify serious faults such as low guardrails, missing and poorly installed anchor ties, at my inspection. The structures have always been signed off as safe and fit to use by scaffolding supervisors. No wonder we have them collapsing. They should also be made to show a green inspection tag as a lawful requirement.

7 Q7 How would you suggest the Merseyside branch can add value to you or your company, your sector and the wider health and safety community, including any other comments you would like to make: Answered: 16 Skipped: 17 # Responses Date 1 All of the Iosh regular attendees have a variety of different skills... I don't feel that we use them to the best advantage... A list of attendees who are will to help their Peers develop, by support in specific H&S they work in or areas where they don't and could develop may be advantageous. 2 Provision of a seminar for Housing Associations and their Direct Labour organisations to outline the Principal Designer role under CDM /29/ :53 AM 10/29/ :14 AM 3 By continuing to put on excellent presentations 10/28/ :42 PM 4 minutes for those who cannot attend 10/28/2015 4:10 PM 5 Whilst my employment is in the insurance sector and we do cover traditional business I think it would be useful to look at H&S in sport and leisure which is a growing trend and big business. 10/28/2015 2:00 PM 6 Enable its members employed in the industry to attend meetings / conference. 10/28/2015 9:11 AM 7 Branch is sufficiently well organised and focused. 10/27/2015 8:40 PM 8 To push for stricter legislation on scaffolding inspections. More rigorous checks by HSE, especially on SME's and factories 10/27/2015 7:39 PM 9 It keeps me connected with like minded individuals, a good place to meet and talk shop. 10/27/2015 6:23 PM 10 The whole health & well-being agenda needs to be better catered for in general, and perhaps the Branch could consider more speakers and discussions about this element of our overall environment 10/27/2015 6:21 PM 11 None 10/27/2015 3:23 PM 12 Real case studies and tools 10/27/2015 2:10 PM 13 A better understanding of culture and behavioural safety would help 10/27/ :09 PM 14 More Environmental issues onto the agenda? eg Industrial Emissions Directive and/or WM3? REACH/CLP? CDM15 should have been on the agenda already. Behavioural Safety/Cultural improvements/human Factors? More involvement from the "audience" - incidents/learnings etc. Greater involvement with the regulator (HSE, EA/NRW, Fire) etc 10/27/ :53 AM 15 local responses to (government) consultations 10/27/ :28 AM 16 None 10/27/ :09 AM 7 / 8

8 Q8 Any other comments or issues that you would like to raise (does not necessarily need to be related to the questionnaire) Answered: 15 Skipped: 18 # Responses Date 1 What on earth happened with the guilty or not guilty day? Postponed then cancelled. It all looked a bit shambolic 10/30/ :53 AM 2 Good team on the organising committee.. make the events worthwhile and attendable... 10/29/ :53 AM 3 CPD the nightmare 10/28/2015 4:10 PM 4 No 10/28/2015 2:00 PM 5 The move toward charging for every event staged by IOSH has caused me to consider the value of membership. 10/28/2015 9:11 AM 6 A well run branch - not afraid to challenge the ruling body. 10/27/2015 8:40 PM 7 Making the business case - speakers who are not safety people talking about what drew them to regard safety & health positively! 10/27/2015 6:21 PM 8 None 10/27/2015 3:23 PM 9 I have been a member for many years and every year I wonder why I keep it up. 10/27/2015 2:10 PM 10 I think there should be more focus on branch work and the members 10/27/ :09 PM 11 Thanks to all members who attended Newsprinters visit last year. It was a pleasure to host! 10/27/ :04 PM 12 meetings being located on the Wirral takes longer to get to than if in Liverpool so difficult to attend during the day when pushed for time. 13 Generally the meetings are well run and efficient - the team do a good job in a nice venue. Events such as Jan 16 "Networking" etc are perceived as adding little value. 10/27/ :55 AM 10/27/ :53 AM 14-10/27/ :28 AM 15 Please be advised that Janis.Jackson@dfguk.com has passed away please can you amend your records accordingly- 10/27/ :06 AM 8 / 8
