Health & Safety Induction Course Specification

It makes good business sense to adopt effective health and safety practises – both practically and legally – in order to minimise business risk.

Employees need to be aware that it is their duty to take reasonable care in health and safety issues – and that there are consequences for themselves, their colleagues and the organisation if they fail to do so.

There’s invaluable guidance here for developing an understanding of how to prevent accidents, damage and ill health at work.
