The Health and Safety at Work Awareness course is designed to provide construction workers and professionals with a solid understanding of workplace health and safety standards. Given the dynamic and high-risk nature of the construction industry, this course emphasises the importance of adhering to safety protocols to safeguard individuals and ensure compliance with UK regulations.
The course covers key legislation, including the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2015, and provides participants with the tools to identify and manage workplace hazards effectively. Topics include risk assessment, personal protective equipment (PPE), infection control, fire safety, manual handling, and stress management.
By fostering a proactive approach to workplace safety, the course empowers participants to conduct inspections, report incidents under RIDDOR (Reporting of Injuries, Diseases, and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations), and promote a culture of safety. Participants will leave the course equipped to create a safer work environment, reduce accidents, and enhance overall workplace well-being.
