Cultivate a Safe Workplace: Protect People, Ensure Compliance, and Drive Operational Excellence
The health and safety course is designed to create awareness of key health and safety issues. This allows participants to understand the role everyone plays in ensuring a safe working environment. Our course covers the entire framework for staying healthy and safe at work. Discussions take a look at environmental, occupational and human factors that affect people in the workplace. Training begins with an understanding of basic definitions. We will then move on to the common causes of injuries and ill health in the workplace and find out what controls can be put in place. At the end of the course is an assessment which on completion, a certificate is awarded by the Chartered Institute for Environmental Health, UK (CIEH).
