COSHH - Learning Objectives
COSHH regulations exist to empower employers and their workers to proactively minimise the risks associated with all materials and substances with the potential to be hazardous to health. Where COSHH regulations are followed and suitable policies established, it is possible to significantly reduce the risk of people becoming unwell, injured or losing their lives due to exposure to harmful substances.
The objective of this course is to help employers and employees at all levels understand the principles of COSHH, how to ensure their business complies with them and ultimately how to safeguard people from harm - employees, guests, customers, visitors and contractors included.
Each of the seven course modules covers a different topic or knowledge or area, examining such COSHH essentials as:
- How to identify potential health hazards
- The importance of conducting regular risk assessments
- Provision of safeguarding equipment to reduce risk
- The primary principles of COSHH regulations
- Who ultimately takes responsibility for health and safety
The benefits of a detailed understanding of COSHH regulations extend to each and every member of the workforce without exception. This COSHH course has therefore been designed with all employees at all levels in mind, from entry-level newcomers through to senior management and business owners.
