Glenn Silburn is really no different from many people who have a full-time role in health and safety management. He is a Chartered professional with an impressive collection of relevant qualifications, including a NEBOSH Master’s degree, and he describes OSH as his true passion. “It’s simply what I love doing,” he says. However, what makes Glenn a little different is that he is not what most of us would think of as a full-time health and safety manager. Instead, Glenn works for Associated British Ports (ABP) as a Maintenance Manager. So how exactly does that work? Perhaps it is best to begin by explaining what being a Maintenance Manager at ABP actually involves. Glenn heads up a team of 58 engineering staff, who basically maintain the entire infrastructure at Hull and Goole ports on the Humber. Together, the two ports handle around 1 million ferry passengers and 12 million tonnes of cargo every year.
