ALARP 2024 event to focus on emerging risks in engineering

The Institution of Mechanical Engineers' Safety and Reliability Group is proud to announce that the next edition of their annual ALARP seminar will be taking place on 24 September 2024 at the ICC in Birmingham.

This year, the event will focus on emerging risks, exploring how the ALARP principle guides engineers working in an evolving landscape, navigating risks driven by digital transformation, increasingly complex systems, and a changing energy system.

The seminar is an opportunity to benchmark your risk management performance against some of the leading experts in industry and academia, allowing you to maintain the highest standards of safety and ensure compliance.

For a glimpse of what to expect at ALARP 2024, attendees of the previous event said the following:

“A very useful, informative and well-run event, with speakers from a broad cross-section of industry, delivering an excellent mix of presentations on real-world case studies and detailed technical information. Well worth attending.”
Senior Engineer - Road and Surface Vehicles, Transport for London

“The seminar provided a breath of perspectives on the interpretation of ALARP across multiple industries and sectors. A well organised and interesting event.”
Health, Safety and Environmental Engineer, Siemens Gamesa

“A very interesting and worthwhile event that that was particularly interesting because it used the concept of ALARP and risk management generally to illustrate the huge diversity of industries in which engineering is a vital common factor.”
Quality Risk Management Consultant, Protogen Consulting Ltd

“Great event with experienced speakers that provides an industry cross view of applying the ALARP principle and industry specific issues encountered.”
Engineer (Site Safety Case), BAE Systems
