Health and Safety Induction
Employees who are new to an organisation, or who are young people, suffer more accidents and ill health than the rest of the working population. Induction training and orientation in the workplace is essential to protect employees.
The Health and Safety Induction course we have developed provides an interactive experience for trainees to learn the basic elements of health, safety and environment in the workplace, how they can be involved in risk assessments and what to look out for at work. The course is ideally suited as part of an ‘Induction’ package and also as a start point for employees to attend other specific courses.
