Gary Foggo
Legal Director (Health & Safety) - Navigator
"A health and safety practitioner with 25 years’ experience working either ‘in-house’ or as a consultant.”
I joined Navigator in 2018 and deliver our health and safety offering, which includes:
- Providing health and safety consultancy services to a diverse client base.
- Auditing management systems and processes.
- Conducting detailed workplace inspections.
- Developing policies and procedures and specific risk assessments (including fire).
- Development and delivery of bespoke training solutions.
- As an IOSH-accredited trainer, I deliver IOSH Managing Safely and Working Safely.
I've been fortunate in my health and safety career to have worked in a diverse range of environments, from corporate, manufacturing, and logistics to outsourced hard services facilities management, as well as exposure to the sheer number of environments a consultancy role presents.
I’m a Chartered Member of the Institution of Safety and Health (IOSH).
- During my career I have been involved in some interesting projects which have included the scoping, procurement and implementation of a software system to manage contractor health and safety activities on behalf of the Scottish Government, and working with a pan-European team in the development and delivery of a behavioural safety programme which was subsequently implemented at multiple manufacturing and logistics sites across Europe.
- Blagging a tour of the THORP facility at Sellafield, I still faintly glow in the dark many years later.
- After 25 years as a health and safety practitioner maintaining my sanity and sense of humour, those who know me well may dispute these claims.
