Work-related stress, health and well-being We shouldn’t see health and well-being as something different than safety. With a safety issue we look at protecting the person from a physical hazard, but organisations should look closely at what they are doing to protect the person from a psychological hazard. Dr Sarah Hattam is a practicing GP with a special interest in workplace health, well-being and especially mental health and work (and non-work) related stress. In this interactive session, Sarah will talk about the common issues she deals with on a daily basis, while Cristina will highlight the impact of fatigue and shift work on performance, and the countermeasures that organisations can introduce.
Vehicle, material movement and storage stability Over recent years there has been a steady increase in the number of transport and material related incidents, some of which have resulted in serious injury. Vehicle and material movement doesn’t stop when loads leave the site, and companies still have a responsibility for the material they transport when on the road. This session will start with a case study and how, following an incident, one company reviewed its whole internal transport procedures and the measures it has since implemented . This will be followed by Andy Binns who will give an insight into the role of Highways England and dealing with the aftermath of a load shift incident.

Environmental Permitting
Paper & Board in Food Contact
With high impact changes to environmental permitting on the horizon, this session will discuss the way forward for sector permits with the integration of Abstraction Licencing into mill permits, defining UK BAT & BAT AELs, requirements for hitherto exempt activities such as waste paper depots, to apply for permits. Changes to sector permits brings in a requirement for sites to produce Fire Prevention Plans. The session will hear from the Wood Recyclers Association who have produced a Sector Guide on writing Fire Prevention Plans in collaboration with the EA. Work-related stress, health and well-being Every year the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) publish an annual survey that examines trends in work-related absence in UK workplaces. Drawing on the survey results, Rachel will discuss the main reasons for absenteeism, including the effect of ‘presenteeism’ and ‘leaveism’, while Dan will address the big issues around mental health and well-being. SESSION 8
Producers of food contact materials have always had a responsibility to manufacture their materials in accordance with the ‘Framework’ Regulation. But in the absence of specific (EU) legislation for paper & board, how does industry demonstrate the suitability of paper & board for food contact? In this session you will hear how the industry has revised the longstanding voluntary Guideline and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) as well as the other steps that are being taken to demonstrate compliance and prepare for potential legislation. And, importantly, where do we stand in terms of UK legislation as we leave the EU? Hear the position from experts as it develops post-Brexit.

Machine procurement, safe interventions and control standards
Each year the industry invests heavily on purchasing machinery. Unfortunately, some equipment when it arrives in the UK does not meet the required level of safety standards. New PABIAC guidance for the Procurement and Installation of Machinery is designed to assist all sites in the planning and implementation of purchasing new machinery. In this session, delegates will have an opportunity to ask questions to a panel of experts on machinery procurement issues relative to the guidance. Energy efficiency in a bio-based economy With a mandatory 2050 target for the UK to reduce emissions by 80%, pressure to decarbonise production continues to grow. Added to rapidly increasing energy cost, and a Roadmap charting potential opportunities, there’s a refocused attention on energy efficiency. SESSION 12 The speakers in this session will discuss the current energy efficency options and what industry is doing. From a policy perspective, we will find out about Government support, and what additional support is available through the Industrial Energy Efficiency Accelerator and other funds.

A consequence of the ubiquity of paper is the high degree of complexity and wide range of both suppliers and customers that must be engaged. The session will hear from stakeholders as diverse as finance directors and food industry customers and will examine how the UK’s Paper-based Industries can improve their interaction across the totality of their supply chains.
