Health & Safety Simplified
Risk Assessments, COSHH and Safe Systems of Work Made Easy
(Note: No CPD points)
Health and safety doesn’t need to be complicated.
Whether you’re running your own pest control business, managing a team or working out in the field, understanding your health and safety responsibilities is essential. But knowing what paperwork you actually need, how to complete it and how to put it into practice can sometimes feel overwhelming.
Our Health & Safety Simplified course takes the confusion out of Risk Assessments, COSHH Assessments and Safe Systems of Work, giving you the knowledge and confidence to manage health and safety effectively in your everyday work.
“Under the Health & Safety at Work etc Act, you must ensure that nobody is not harmed by your actions or omissions at work. From working at height to using chemicals and entering dusty or infested environments, pest control is a hazardous occupation. When things go wrong, the outcome of HSE investigations is typically that risk assessments were not ‘suitable and sufficient’. Ensure you have been ‘duly diligent’ in your work planning in order to help prevent accidents and prosecutions.”
