Delegates

This one-day course is designed to help those who are about to or have just begun to work in the industry to provide the potential hazards they face on site.

It provides a practicable summary of health, safety, welfare and environmental issues, identifying the delegate’s responsibilities for looking after themselves and others; outlines the employer’s duties; and explains what should be done if the worker thinks that anyone’s health and safety is being put at risk.

The course is an ideal foundation for those wishing to obtain an industry accreditation card.

This course is also an alternative route to the QCF Level 1 Award in Health and Safety in a Construction Environment for the CSCS Labourer Card.

Delegates will receive a certificate of attendance. We recommend that this course is renewed every five years.
