Program Description

This comprehensive workplace safety package equips professionals in the construction, maintenance, and trades sectors with critical risk awareness and regulatory compliance knowledge. Specifically tailored for tradespeople such as joiners, roofers, plumbers, painters, decorators, and caretakers, the training establishes fundamental safety protocols required across diverse work environments. Participants gain an understanding of how to identify hazardous materials, mitigate workplace dangers, and protect both colleagues and the public.

The curriculum integrates three core safety areas: Asbestos Awareness, Workplace Health and Safety, and Working at Height. The asbestos module examines the properties and health risks of asbestos fibers, identifying asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), emergency response protocols, and key statutory obligations under the Control of Asbestos Regulations. The general health and safety section focuses on hazard identification, accident investigation, prevention, and safety communication. The working at height component instructs participants on access equipment, scaffolding safety, ladder inspections, and compliance with the Work at Height Regulations 2005.

Delivered fully online through an interactive learning management system, the self-paced courses feature flexible access allowing learners to pause and resume training as needed. Each module concludes with a 15-question multiple-choice assessment requiring a 75 percent pass mark. Upon successful completion, learners immediately receive RoSPA Assured and CPD-certified digital credentials that can be logged toward professional development hours.
