Protect Your People: COSHH Training for Safer Workplaces
Hazardous substances are present in more workplaces than you might think—from cleaning products and chemicals to dust and fumes. Without proper training, exposure can lead to serious health risks and legal consequences.
Our COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) course, approved by IIRSM and the Institute of Hospitality, is designed to help employees and managers understand the risks and responsibilities associated with hazardous substances in the workplace.
Why COSHH Training Is Essential
Under UK law, employers must protect workers from exposure to substances that are toxic, harmful, corrosive, or irritant. This course provides the knowledge needed to identify risks, understand regulations, and implement effective control measures.
