Why is this Health and Safety at Work course important?
Under Section 2 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, employers must provide training for their employees to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, their health and safety at work.
The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 identify situations where health and safety training is particularly important, including:
- Training for recruits.
- Training for when people change jobs or take on extra responsibilities.
- Training for young, more vulnerable employees.
- Refresher training where existing skills need updating.
The Health and Safety (Training for Employment) Regulations 1990 also state that learners doing work experience must be covered by health and safety law and so will also require training.
This online Health and Safety at Work training course ensure that you comply with these laws by providing an adequate level of information suitable for all employees.
