Course Objectives

By the end of the COSHH training course, the delegate will:

• understand the risks of handling and storing hazardous substances, relevant to their industry
• have gained further knowledge in the classification, packaging and labelling of hazardous substances
• have a basic overview of recognising, measuring and managing exposure to harmful chemical substances
• possess a greater awareness of the Chemical Regulations 2015 legislation

Course Content

The content covered by the COSHH training course includes:

• The different forms of biological and chemical agents
• Classifying substances
• Specific agents and their health hazards
• Routes of entry
• Who is COSHH for?
• Limits of workplace exposure
• Control measures
• Health risk surveys
• Environmental issues
• Practical risk assessments

The tutor tailors the training to the client’s needs; it is an effective way of teaching a particular organisation about substances relevant to them. The course can also cover the relevant risks that the workers will face. In comparison to a general overview, the trainer can help specific organisations implement procedures that everyone will understand, as opposed to delivering a generic course.

What is Required to Pass the COSHH Course?

At the end of the training, delegates are not required to attend a final exam.
