Health & Safety Training Course

Why train your staff in health & safety?

Training your staff in health & safety can be a valuable asset in any business.  Apart from reducing accidents, it will also help to build a positive health & safety culture. 

We offer two levels of accredited health & safety training that are designed to help you meet your legal duties to protect the health, safety and wellbeing of your staff. Both courses are run by experienced and qualified instructors.

Level 1 - Half day training

This is an excellent introduction to health and safety in the workplace and will benefit any member of staff, in any industry or sector and accommodates induction training for the new employee very well, or for those returning to work after a long absence so that Health and Safety legislation can be updated.

This course covers:

• Understanding the importance of health, safety and welfare standards in the workplace
• Knowing how hazards and risks are controlled in the workplace
  
• Being aware of the main causes and effects of poor health and safety at work
  
• Understanding how health and safety information is communicated in the workplace

Level 2 - 1 day training

This is an excellent introduction to health and safety in the workplace and will benefit all employees, particularly those who may be accepting a health and safety role, such as a safety representative within their organisation.

This course covers:

• The roles and responsibilities for health, safety and welfare in the workplace.
• The value and process of risk assessments.
  
• The identification and control of workplace hazards.
  
• How to respond to workplace incidents and accidents.
  
  

We offer a number of manual handling training courses.  These range from a bespoke short course to an accredited full day course.

Accredited Health & Safety Training.

This qualification does not expire, but refresher training and keeping up to date with changes to policies and procedures is vital to keep the qualification current.

How many delegates can we train?

A maximum of 12 students are allowed and must be a minimum of 14 years of age and a certificate can be offered to all, subject to assessment.
