Course material in the space does not correspond to the material seen during the training, as it was not led by Mr MOUTON as indicated in your material. Points missing from the training: level of responsibility of those involved (civil, criminal), distinction between the roles of CSE members and referent, tools for analysing work situations, visit reports, PDP, registers (not seen), role of the referent and the legal environment.
