Health & Safety
In this webinar we discuss how organisations are responding to this challenge, and the role digital tools can play in turning guidance into action.Work-related stress, depression, and anxiety are now among the leading causes of workplace ill health in the UK, accounting for millions of lost working days each year. For organisations, this makes psychosocial risk both a safety challenge and an occupational health priority. Addressing it requires looking at physical and mental health together and ensuring employees are supported across their entire work journey.Using frameworks such as ISO 45003 and HSE’s stress management standards as reference points, we’ll explore how a digital-first approach can make psychosocial risks visible, measurable, and manageable — enabling earlier intervention, stronger return-to-work processes, clearer reporting, and healthier outcomes for employees and organisations alike.

In environments where fire risk is high and conditions are challenging, early flame detection is critical for protecting people, property, and business continuity. This webinar will explore the role of flame detection within wider fire protection strategies, examining how it complements other detection methods such as smoke and heat sensors.We will take a closer look at the science behind flame detection, including the use of optical sensors and multi-spectrum technology to recognise flame signatures. Attendees will gain insight into the advantages of flame detection in applications where traditional technologies may struggle.Through real-world examples, we will discuss where flame detection adds significant value, from manufacturing facilities and chemical plants to recycling centres and aircraft hangars. We will also highlight how correct specification and installation play a key role in ensuring reliability and reducing false alarms.The session will provide practical guidance for installers, engineers, and system designers on how to get the best from flame detection technology. We’ll cover specification tips, positioning advice, and how to reduce false alarms through correct setup. By the end of the webinar, attendees will have a clearer understanding of when and how flame detection can be applied as part of a reliable fire protection solution.

Fire Safety
This session explores how sustainability principles are being integrated into fire detection and alarm systems, with a focus on practical tools, standards, and case studies.Led by Adil Sardardeen, Sustainability Manager at Apollo Fire Detectors, the session will explain key sustainability concepts and demonstrate how Apollo is embedding environmental responsibility across its operations and product lifecycle. Attendees will gain insight into sustainability drivers, the need for action, the use of Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) to produce Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) or Technical Memorandum 65 (TM65s), and understand their growing relevance in procurement, compliance, and building certification schemes.The session will also feature a case study on Apollo’s product range, showcasing how product-level sustainability data is being used to support greener building outcomes. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of tools and frameworks available to support sustainable decision-making in fire safety and a call to action to lead with purpose in their own organisations.
