IET Safety and Security Code of Practice - Input needed

Lynsay Callaghan
Briefing Document - we want your feedback

The IET Safety TPN has been working closely with the IET Standards Team on a scope for a new Safety and Security Code of Practice.   The briefiing document is attached so have a look and let us know what you think of the idea, does it cover what you would expect, would this be useful and any other comments that we can feed back to the committee.

Next Stage

Get involved and give us your thoughts on this page.


The next stage is to hold a scoping meeting at with around 30 interested stakeholders.  If you are interested in participating in a future scoping workshop on the area, please contact Andrew Cooney (Portfolio Development Manager, IET Standards).

IET Standards

For those of you who may not know a lot about the IET Standards, IET Standards publishes authoritative standards, codes of practice and guidance materials for professional engineers and other key stakeholders, using its expertise to achieve consensus on best practice in emerging and established technology fields. Have a look to see what we already have and what is coming soon.

    Dear Lynsay


    Thaks for the invitation to offfer suggesitons.


    In principle such a code of practice sounds like a good idea, and something that would show that the IET is fufilling our interdisciplinary role.  But, as the scoping document lists, there is a lot out there already, so the key questions seems, to me, to be: What will our document do that helps engineers better than others have produced?  What would make this the "must go-to-and-read" document, not just a reading guide for the other documents?


    My apologies if that sounds like a wet blanket, but I have had experience in a previous life of trying to produce the overarching ultimate guide to multiple standards and codes and know how dififcult it can be.  Has the market for a new document been tested to know what is the unique offering that we can provide?


    If we are clear on these matters, this could be a world-beater for lots of industry sectors.


    Good luck
