ABOUT THIS COURSE

Amongst the many health and safety training courses, this is the one which tells you all you need to know in just six hours. In five modules, our Health & Safety Essentials course begins with an introduction to basic health and safety concepts and how to be aware of hazards to improve safety. It goes on to cover working safely at your computer and continues with the basics of fire safety, fire prevention and what to do in an emergency. Next you’ll move on to learn correct handling techniques at work before taking a final, interactive module giving you the basics of first aid.
