COSHH Risk Assessor

This training is designed to give participants the knowledge and confidence to assess and manage risks from hazardous substances in the workplace. If you’re a manager, supervisor, safety representative, or anyone responsible for ensuring workplace compliance, this course equips you with the practical skills to carry out effective CoSHH Risk Assessments in line with UK legislation.

Training provides a clear understanding of how hazardous substances can affect health, how to interpret Safety Data Sheets, and how to put appropriate control measures in place. With a focus on real-world examples and practical exercise, participants leave the course with the knowledge of how to confidently assess and manage risks from substances in their own workplace.

We can deliver training at our Wiltshire location or at your premises, tailored to your specific work environment.
