AKT is delighted to have received a commission to produce a film for the Aspire Business Partnership LLP. Aspire is a specialist advisory practice providing practical and commercial advice in all aspects of employment tax, compliance and cost reduction strategies.

The film, which will be filmed on location this summer, will be an addition to Aspire's suite of training and consultancy programmes. It will be particularly valuable to clients who engage staff through agencies and intermediaries.

Standing room only for AKT at IOSH 10

It was standing room only in the Networks theatre at IOSH 10, as visitors packed in to see performances by theatre-based training company AKT Productions. AKT performed its play 'Think Again' - a dramatisation originally commissioned by Balfour Beatty - on both days of the exhibition, before embarking on a Scottish your with a different play, 'Terminal', throughout May.

AKT Productions uses theatre to explore the behaviours that have contributed to workplace accidents, so audiences can learn from it and evaluate their own safety performance and culture.

AKT at IOSH 2010

This year's annual IOSH conference, IOSH 10, was held at the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre (SECC) in Glasgow on 24th and 25th March 2010. AKT were proud to support IOSH (and IOSH Scottish branches in particular) by presenting their piece on the Texas City disaster 'Think Again' in the Networks Theatre.

In their conference round-up IOSH wrote:

The exhibition space was a hive of activity with presentations, demonstrations and advice. Highlights included performances by theatre-based training company AKT Productions, free technical guidance, and a chance to meet David Eves, author of the latest IOSH book 'Disaster: Learning the lessons for a safer world'.

Andy Powrie was interviewed for the IOSH YouTube channel:

Filming for Morgan Est

We have been busy this month filming a high impact DVD about site safety as part of Morgan Est's Worksafe Homesafe programme. Locations as diverse as the base of a 200 foot shaft, a new Cardiff wastewater treatment plant, and a new taxiway at Heathrow airport have brought their own unique challenges. AKT and Morgan Est have been rolling out a behavioural safety programme for safety leaders across all parts of its business. This dramatic video will add to the tools and techniques Morgan Est use to ensure that all their staff are safe at home and at work.

Human Performance

AKT has been very busy delivering safety programmes in the Nuclear industry. We have travelled from Dounreay to Dungeness, via Sizewell and Sellafield, working with decommissioning teams, and those people running the stations that provide 20% of Britain's electricity needs. We are currently rolling out a Human Performance Workshop which addresses error traps and considers error prevention tools.
