Course Outline

The IOSH Working Safely training is an excellent one-day workplace health and safety course for your employees. It is appropriate for workers in any sector who have no supervisory or managerial responsibility (for those who do please see our IOSH Managing Safely training). It provides a grounding in the essentials of health and safety – everyone at work should have an understanding of why they must ‘work safely’ and this course offers exactly that. Provision of this vital safety training will empower your employees so that they can contribute to your workplace safety and help to develop a positive culture, easing the burden on management. Working Safely introduces a completely new approach to health and safety training and offers all the basics in a high impact interactive package. This course can be provided at your location and we have open courses, which are available at our training centre in Dukinfield near Manchester.
