Level 1 Health and Safety in a Construction Environment

Overview

People often suffer work-related illnesses, get injured or even killed each year in the United Kingdom while carrying out their job. This leads to the fact that health and safety is a big concern, and workers, employers and the government have a significant role to play when it comes to minimising ill-health, accidents and deaths on-site. Geared particularly for individuals in the construction industry, the Level 1 Health and Safety in a Construction Environment course is designed to provide a thorough overview of the role and legal duties that involve various types of construction work. It is an occupational safety training that offers advice and guidance on carrying out your duties in a construction environment and the role and responsibilities pertaining to the legal aspects of health and safety. Health and safety of construction workers are paramount throughout the many stages of construction, starting from design to planning to the completion of the project.

There is knowledge to be gained from understanding safe working practices and common hazards on a construction site such as respiratory hazards, chemical and electrical hazards and working at height. The objective is to ensure that the risks of working in your role are managed and that you have the right workers for the seriousness of the job.

The course in Level 1 Health and Safety in a Construction Environment contains a wealth of information and practical steps to assist the company or organisation by influencing the health, safety and welfare of construction workers. This is a CPD-certified course which demonstrates to potential employers that you are continually developing yourself, and will make you a desirable candidate in the construction and demolition sectors.
