He was appointed one of HM Inspectors of Factories in 1973 and became part of the Health and Safety Executive on its creation in 1975. Since then he has filled a large variety of roles in policy, administration and the ‘front-line’ – including spells dealing with construction; chemical industry; health services; offshore policy; railway safety policy; general manufacturing and service industries. As HM Chief Inspector of Railways, Vic oversaw major investigations into accidents at Ladbroke Grove, Selby and Hatfield and became a founder member of the International Liaison Group of Government Railway Inspectors.

Gary has a number of roles within the EEF’s business. Principle amongst these is to represent the views of the membership to Government at both a national and European level. On the national stage recent representations have been made concerning employee involvement; asthma; occupational road risk and the involuntary manslaughter proposals. In Europe Gary has been at the forefront of lobbying for UK industry on the Physical Agents Vibration and Noise proposals. This work was successful in ensuring that achievable noise limits will now be adopted.
Together with representing employers views Gary has taken the initiative in leading good practice within the EEF. Earlier this year a high profile conference on the rehabilitation of employees was held in London. More recently practical guidance has been published for business by business on the management of stress in the workplace through risk assessment. Gary and the team in the EEF's offices in London also provide support to the field force of 40 health, safety and environmental advisers who provide practical help to business through the regional Associations. His role here includes providing a 'helpdesk' facility for consultants; developing national training initiatives, and; implementing and auditing the quality systems within the business.

Having completed a graduate engineering apprenticeship scheme with Ford Motor Company and Salford University, I was placed into the Health and Safety function, as assistant Safety Engineer at Southampton plant where the Transit van is made. After 2 years, I moved into a plant-engineering role at Halewood but within a year I returned to an expanded H&S role at Southampton.
After a further 2 years, I progressed to become the assistant to the Company Chief Safety Engineer at the Company’s Brentwood head office. In the latter role I supported all UK sites, focussing on management systems, and training. I also audited all their non-manufacturing sites and participated in the creation of common standards for all Ford European Sites.
In March 1985 I became safety manager for Marconi Underwater Systems (Watford). My role encompassed people and product safety, providing and monitoring the systems that keep people safe at work and provide confidence to the customer. I worked closely with other GEC safety personnel to create a common direction for our H & S management systems. I became a registered safety practitioner in 1989.
In January 1991 I became Health and Safety manager for Toyota Motor Manufacturing UK (Derby). Joining as the 23rd employee of the Company, I was responsible for establishing the health and safety management system, together with the training and information needed to make it work. My team covered all aspects of health, safety and fire prevention and investigation for both Toyota UK sites, Burnaston and Derby. Turning a green field site into a safe large manufacturing Company was a great challenge. In May 01 the Company received the RoSPA Sir George Earle Trophy.
I supported the establishment of new Toyota European sites in France and Poland before they had their own organisations in place. Currently I am focussing on improved safety communication and effective auditing systems All activities are driven through careful planning based upon objectives and targets, with regular reviews, analysis and status checks.

Richard Graveling has more than 25 years experience of work as an ergonomist and is a Fellow of the Ergonomics Society. He is the designated external examiner in ergonomics for the University of Aberdeen (Department of Environmental and Occupational Medicine) and has also acted as the external examiner for PhD students from a number of English universities.
During his time with the IOM, musculoskeletal disorders, in particular back injuries from manual handling together with work-related upper limb disorders, have formed a major focus of both his research and consultancy activities. During his time at the IOM he has been involved in a number of epidemiological studies of back pain and upper limb disorders. He was also leader of the project team which conducted an investigation of the usability of the Manual Handling Regulations and guidance immediately prior to their introduction. This thread of involvement with the Regulatory body has continued with a survey on the implementation of these Regulations, again sponsored by the HSE. In 2003 he completed further work on research into manual handling training for the HSE, which has been used in revising the current guidance document (L23). At present, he is evaluating the impact of the MAC (Manual Handling Assessment Checklist).
His work in relation to ULDs is equally comprehensive. He had primary responsibility for the development of an early risk-assessment tool for industrial settings on behalf of the HSE and was a leading member of the research team who carried out a major epidemiological survey of work-related upper limb disorders in the office environment, again with HSE funding. He was also one of the few ergonomists represented on a series of HSE advisory groups relating to research needs on work-related upper limb. He also participated in an HSE-sponsored 'Delphi' exercise considering the diagnosis of selected upper limb disorders for epidemiological research. Recently, he was one of only two ergonomists who attended an invited workshop on the work-relatedness of upper limb disorders, organised on behalf of the Industrial Injuries Advisory Council.
All of this research experience underpins practical experience in advising companies on the identification and reduction of manual handling and ULD risk factors in the workplace.
