IOSH Training
According to IOSH, approximately two million people across the world die every year as a result of health and safety failures. In the European Union alone, someone dies every three to four minutes.
IOSH training does more than just ‘tick the box’. It gets the essential information across, delivers the skills required and inspires course attendees to put what they learn into practice when they are at work. Getting people fully involved and learning by doing is the best way to achieve your health and safety training goals. IOSH courses are suitable for operator, supervisor and management level employees.

Who should go on Working safely?
Working safely is for people at any level, in any sector, needing 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.
What will they get out of it?
What they need to know – and are perhaps reluctant to learn about – in a refreshingly informal way. Working safely isn’t supposed to turn delegates into safety experts. It focuses on why health and safety is important, and how individuals can make a real difference to the wellbeing of themselves and others through changing their behaviour.
What will their employer get out of it?
Nationally recognised and respected certificated training for their teams
peace of mind offered by training that’s designed and quality-controlled by the Chartered body for health and safety
minimum disruption to working days and shifts – the one-day programme includes the assessment, so there’s no need to free up further time for a test after the course
Working safely meets the government’s guidelines for introductory health and safety training and is a 100 per cent match to the Health and Safety Executive’s ‘passport’ syllabus
two key areas – health and safety and environmental basics – are covered in a single self-contained session.
Working safely delivers… Since Working safely was first launched in 1993, over 200,000 people from a huge range of sectors have successfully completed the course and learned how to ‘work safely’
