Workable Health & Safety…

Gloucestershire training company learning4business has received a seal of approval from the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) for its online course ‘Working Safely’.

The course, which will be available this month, has been updated in order to conform to the new syllabus released by IOSH earlier this year. The new syllabus was produced in an attempt to demystify health and safety and this is reflected in an absence of jargon and an emphasis on the practical demands of day-to-day working life rather than legal detail.

Peter Howell, managing director of learning4business said, ‘We are delighted that our course has been approved by IOSH. We have been working with the Institution for three years now and we are always keen to ensure that we meet with their high standards.’

The 'Working Safely' course reflects the new syllabus which, as well as requiring a wider coverage of common hazards, also includes a new module dealing with health and safety and the environment. All 'Working Safely' courses run after 7th November 2006 must be approved by IOSH as complying with the new syllabus requirements.
