This book is written for Event Planners as well as Project, Site and Operations Managers that are concerned about the Health and Safety of everyone at their events. Are you asking yourself Is my event safe? Am I doing everything I can to keep everyone on site safe and keep myself from being thrown in jail?" Bruno's been answering these questions for more than 30 years now. He's well known for coming up with solutions to keeping events safe and giving others piece of mind...and he's never, ever been thrown in jail. You'll get: tools for monitoring and maintaining crowd behavior, exact formulas for calculating capacities, amount of fire extinguishers and how many first aiders you'll need, evaluation tools for venue safety, documents and signage, methods for writing and evaluating event risk assessments, emergency procedures for incidents such as bomb threats, active shooters and structural collapse and much much more... Every topic has been presented and optimized during Bruno's trainings. Here's what your colleagues say about them: "We thoroughly enjoyed the one day intensive Event Safety Training Bruno gave us. Our already well trained and experienced project and operations managers gained many new insights into reducing hazards, as well as handling crowd safety and event safety documentation..." - Haider Shukry, Senior Operations Manager - Flash Entertainment "Finally, a trainer that actually has experience" - Richard Scott, Eclipse "My Project Managers gave glowing reports about the training. Well done - much more to come I'm sure!" - Adrian Bell, Action Impact"
