Basic Fighter Maneuvers
April 15, 2025, 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM (MT)
Are you ready for the dogfight when the focus shifts from your work site to the courtroom?
WHAT IS THIS PARTICULAR SESSION ABOUT?
We all know that the best defence is a good offence. After all, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. And so, you set out to develop your OH&S systems, sparing no expense to ensure that they are properly implemented, monitored, and enforced; all the while spending countless hours working to improve the safety culture of your work force.
However, what happens when, despite your best efforts, adversity strikes? Have you prepared as diligently for this potential onslaught as you have for on-the-ground safety measures? Do you possess the armor of legal knowledge and readiness to defend your position when the focus shifts from the work site to the legal battlefield?
In this webinar we'll explore the art of being "Dogfight Ready" in the realm of workplace incident prosecutions. Learn how to wield evidence as your weaponry and legal arguments as your tactical maneuvers. Discover what to do and, just as crucially, what not to do in those critical hours following a workplace incident. Just as the best fighter pilots excel not only in the cockpit but also in the heat of combat, you too can emerge victorious in the courtroom by preparing for the legal dogfight that may lie ahead.
WHEN IS IT TAKING PLACE?
Tuesday, April 15, 2025, 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM (Mountain Time).

WHY SHOULD I CHOOSE THIS WEBINAR SERIES?
It's different. And we’re different. We aren't going to talk at you, pretend we know everything there is to know about you, your people, or your business, or try to convince you that a stock, recycled presentation is really going to address the issues that are important to you. We understand the bigger picture. And that’s why we want to talk to you, get to know you, and work with you, to create an experience that will actually provide you with recognizable value. It’s why the first half of our sessions are committed to sharing our experience, and the latter half to engaging directly with you, and answering your questions.
With the facilitator's background as a former OH&S Crown Prosecutor, you’ll be privy to a unique perspective, insight, and tips (typically only shared with large institutional clients), that will enable you to truly understand the nuances that exist within the OH&S regulatory regime, and "how to" successfully navigate through them.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT TO WALK AWAY WITH?
In simple terms? The information that we wish you knew, before you or your organization need to retain us.
Unlike webinars of a more general focus, our topics have been specially selected to address what we see as key misunderstandings, shortcomings, and areas of concern, among supervisors, executives, and business owners. Our goal is to explore these issues with you, in an effort to minimize your individual and organizational exposure, by giving you the tools you need to critically assess your thought processes and work environments, before an incident takes place.
