The Awareness of Health and Safety at Work course demonstrates the key principles of workplace health and safety, emphasised the importance of risk assessment and outlines incident reporting and communication.

The Fire Safety course teaches staff about the causes of fire, detection and warning systems, evacuation procedure and how to tackle small fires when necessary, covering key required knowledge.
