Course Description For any employer with five or more employees it is mandatory that a risk assessment is completed and recorded. These assessments will identify any significant risks that are present in the working environment and they must be deemed to be suitable and sufficient.
The process of undertaking a risk assessment can prove to be a complicated and difficult which can lead to critical safety issues being incorrectly recorded or identified. This is why we have developed a highly interactive risk assessment e-learning course that uses a combination of animation, video, text, audio and images to provide vital awareness on risk assessments.
By the end of the course you will have learned about:
Being able to identify hazards and risks
Understanding who should carry out assessments and legislation
Understanding the stages of risk assessment
Understanding who is at risk and the level of the risk
