UK-The PLASA Rigging Conference,10 and 11 September 2012,has already built a strong reputation as a forum for promoting professional standards and practices across the industry.To consolidate and build on this PLASA Events are delighted to confirm a new session to add to the already packed programme of events.

Flip Sandell(HSE)asks:A shackle falls to the stage and hits a stagehand causing life threatening injuries:what happens now?

Flip Sandell currently works in the HSE's Entertainment and Leisure Sector and is responsible for their role in live music events,theatre,film,broadcasting and fairgrounds.Flip's session will explain what happens during the investigation-from when the investigator first arrives until the final closure of the file.He will be able to answer questions such as:what are the legal duties,where do they lie and what planning can you do to make sure the buck stops elsewhere?
