Specialist Training
The information, instruction, training and supervision people need before they do the work.
Training is how you show that people are competent for the risks they actually face: induction, fire, first aid, COSHH, plant, working at height, food hygiene, or director legal duties. A certificate on the wall is not enough if it is out of date or the job has changed. Leemarda Safety hosts the registers and refresher dates so you can see who is still competent.
Ask Leemarda to do this for youWhat the law requires
- HSWA 1974, section 2(2)(c): provide such information, instruction, training and supervision as is necessary to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health and safety of employees.
- Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, regulation 13: employers must take account of employees’ capabilities and provide adequate health and safety training on recruitment and when they are exposed to new or increased risks, repeated periodically where appropriate. Regulation 10 requires information for employees on risks and controls, and for a parent before employing a child.
- Other regulations add specific training duties, for example COSHH, the Work at Height Regulations 2005, and first-aid arrangements under the Health and Safety (First-Aid) Regulations 1981.
Official guidance
- HSE expects training to be proportionate to the risk and refreshed when the work, the equipment or the person changes. We record the date and the next review so that does not slip.
