Having people in care means you need to understand possible dangers that can cause harm. Something that falls under this umbrella is substances. Some substances that may be kept in the same building as someone in care can be hazardous and pose a health risk to everyone in the building.

This course equips you with the knowledge of what lies dormant within the workplace and how to inform others of its danger. Prevention is better than cure, and the better informed the staff complement is of what resides alongside them, the better their chances of evading injury.

During the session, you’ll cover the following:

  • An explanation of the term ‘hazardous’ in respect to its use regarding hazardous substances
  • The nature of substances that are covered by legal regulations
  • The main routes and means by which hazardous substances can enter the human body
  • What is involved in undertaking a full Risk Assessment based on a recognised five-step process
  • The duties of both the employer and the employee in relation to the presence of hazardous substances in the workplace
  • The impact on current workplace processes of upcoming changes to official ‘labelling’.

This course is available as a half or full-day course. It comprises a mixture of activities. Once the course is completed, you will be asked to complete a simple multiple-choice assessment. You will be given a certificate to acknowledge the passing of the course.
