IOSH has been involved in working with Young Enterprise for the last three years.

They award a health and safety prize to the team of young people who take best account of health and safety in the report they produce about their company.  One volunteer from each local branch is needed to judge the reports, attend the event and decide who wins the health and safety prize.  You will be required to make a decision before the event and some criteria for the judgement will be provided. At the event there will be an opportunity to meet the teams, who will take part in a small exhibition.  You may be involved in some final judging and are required to say a few words about IOSH as well. The trophy is provided by Young Enterprise.

There are six events.  These are as follows:
