Peace of mind that you have covered the minimum legislative training requirements.

Integration of health, safety, and environmental systems 

We will send over a questionnaire to be completed by yourselves (minimum of one week prior to the course) this helps us understand your business activities a little better, any forms (emergency plans, RAMS, COSHH assessments, etc. That we can include in the session) and type of spill response equipment available to the teams. Note: We can provide spill kits and PPE/RPE (we are a distributor for JSP) at competitive prices if you so need. 

We recommend delegates renew their qualification after 3 years. However, it is recommended that, during the 3-year period, delegates attend annual refresher courses.
