A firm basis for a safe and compliant workplace
The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 requires you to provide the information, instruction, training and supervision as is nec-
essary to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health and safety at work of your employees.
The act is expanded by the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, which identify situations where health
and safety training is particularly important, such as when people start work, on exposure to new or increased risks and where
existing skills may have become rusty or need updating.
Equivalent to a one-day (6-hour) classroom-based course, the MindLeaders Foundation Health & Safety elearning course
delivers the training required to comply with this legislation for all staff in a hospitality, healthcare, food manufacturing, office or
related workplace.
Featuring pre-module and post-module multiple choice assessments to secure understanding, this fully interactive and nar-
rated course is designed to help the learner retain information and apply it in a practical work situation.
