The primary goal of health and safety training is to prevent accidents and injuries. We believe that a culture of learning benefits everyone and we aim to make this a reality through effective training, support, and advice. Training equips individuals with the knowledge to identify and mitigate potential hazards, creating a safer work environment.

Health and safety training refers to programs designed to equip individuals with the knowledge, skills, and awareness necessary to promote and maintain safe and healthy environments in various settings, such as workplaces, schools, or community spaces. These training programs aim to educate participants about potential hazards, risks, and preventive measures to minimise accidents, injuries, illnesses, and other adverse health outcomes.

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) provide the following information:
The Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 requires you to provide whatever information, instruction, training and supervision as is necessary to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health and safety at work of your employees. This is expanded by the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, which identify situations where health and safety training is particularly important, e.g. when people start work, on exposure to new or increased risks and where existing skills may have become rusty or need updating. Like many employers, you may not be in a position to provide this training on your own, in which case you will need competent help. If possible, you should appoint one or more of your employees.
