Overview

Understanding the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) regulations is absolutely vital for both employers and employees, not only for workplace safety but also for compliance with UK legal requirements. Every year, thousands of workers are exposed to hazardous substances that can cause long-term health issues, serious illness, or even life-threatening conditions if not managed properly. By completing COSHH training, staff gain the knowledge and confidence to recognise risks, prevent accidents, and ensure that workplaces remain safe, productive, and fully compliant with the law.

Our COSHH training provides a clear and comprehensive introduction to the COSHH framework, explaining what employers and employees need to know and the steps they must take to meet their legal responsibilities. It breaks down complex regulations into practical, easy-to-follow guidance that can be applied directly in the workplace.

From understanding what constitutes a hazardous substance to carrying out structured risk assessments, applying precautionary measures, and preparing effective contingency planning, this course takes learners step by step through the essential processes required for compliance.

• How to perform a risk assessment
