COSHH Training Online

There are thousands of accidents every year involving hazardous substances in workplaces. With this COSHH training online, these accidents don’t need to happen!

Although some products contain or create substances that are considered hazardous, using them safely and correctly can significantly reduce, if not completely remove, the associated hazards.

There is legislation in place, to help protect people in the workplace against risks from these hazardous substances. This legislation is called Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 (COSHH).

"I found this course to be extremely resourceful. COSHH was explained well throughout the entire course." - Anmol Rai, Inglewood House
