• 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:

• Routes of entry
• Who is COSHH for?
• Limits of workplace exposure
• Control measures

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.

Delegate’s contribution will be assessed by the tutor throughout the course.
