Our team of trainers are registered to provide cost effective Health & Safety and Food Safety training across the country on location or off site at our training centre.
Health & Safety Training
Employers are responsible for providing safe and healthy workplace conditions and the right systems and methods for safe activities. Employees also have a vital part to play in the equation. They need the right knowledge and the right attitude to ensure this knowledge is implemented. This demands proper training in the basics of health and safety, as well as specific training for individual tasks. On the 6th April the corporate manslaughter and corporate homicide Act came into force. Organisations who contravene health and safety legislation risk tougher prosecutions, including unlimited fines and even imprisonment. A qualification in Health and Safety will assist businesses to comply with their legal requirements by demonstrating that members of staff have been trained in preventative approaches to hazards and promoting a 'safe practice' culture. Moreover, they are designed to ensure that all employees are aware of their own safety and the safety of customers, contractors and the public and are applicable in any private or public sector environment.
Food Safety Training
Food safety law requires all food handlers to be trained according to their food handling work activities. The qualifications we provide are intended for anyone working in catering, hospitality or manufacturing settings where food is prepared, cooked, served or produced. The qualifications in food safety will assist food business operators to demonstrate that food handlers have been trained in food hygiene matters appropriate to the work that they do and therefore comply with their legal requirement. This will contribute to producing safe food, protecting your profits and your business.
