TASCS.ie – Donal Brennan Training and Safety Consultancy Services

Who am I?

I have been working in a health and safety related role since 1989, coincidentally the year of the first Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act. My early career was in the insurance industry in commercial underwriting and later risk surveying.

In 2002 I joined the Emergency Services in a frontline emergency fire, rescue and medical role. In 2003 I graduated with a Diploma in Emergency Medical Science which I upskilled to a Graduate Diploma level from UCD in 2017. In 2011 I graduated with first-class honours with a Masters in Health and Safety from DCU and in 2019 I graduated with first class honours with a Bachelor in Business Studies from IT Carlow.

▾ What do I do?

I can deliver a wide range of health and safety workplace solutions for your organisation. This includes bespoke safety statements and other safety documents as well as workplace training such as first aid, fire safety, manual handling, chemical safety.

▾ Why?

The 2005 Safety Health and Welfare at Work Act requires employers to provide a safe place of work. Analysing the workplace to highlight anything that could cause harm to persons, loss of property or even loss of reputation enables you to ensure that you are taking all reasonable measures to ensure you are keeping everyone safe, saving money and complying with the law. Everyone is entitled to come to work and return home safely.

▾ How?

A risk assessment is a careful analysis of anything that could cause loss or damage. It might be a faulty machine, a dangerous work practice or lack of knowledge or training. Putting in place measures to eliminate or reduce this is risk management.
