High-speed race through lots of material

It provides a good overview of the whole topic, but is very light on implementation detail. Long lists of legislation provide awareness of the existence of requirements, but does not really cover how to implement them. Being tested on how many musculoskeletal injuries happen each year seems a bit pointless. A useful introduction, but probably needs a follow-up with more substance.

Informative and easy to follow

As an appointed health and safety representative in the company I work for I found that this course provided all of the information necessary to help me fulfil this part of my role.

Good delivery, easy to understand.

Some of the terms in the questioning I think lead to some incorrect responses, such as the final question on 'responsibility' of H&S at work, the previous training slides said it was the employers 'responsibility' but its everyone's 'Duty'. If i were asked this question before the course i would have said everybody – learnt on previous courses.

Good course and refresh.

Very good course.

Made me realise a lot more about H&S.

Ok but some confusing definitions

Its difficult to fit this topic into a 'one size fits all' one hour course however for our organisation too generic. Very static office/premises based rather than managing service delivery or away from base activities. Video sections a bit flat and a lot of 'talk at you' information. Terminology in parts jarred a little. Step 1, confusion and conflation between ‘competent person’ ie specific responsibility for advising organization on H&S and managers and supervisors with general responsibility for implementation and oversight of H&S areas under their control. Step 2: Write a H&S Policy – Reference to ‘general policies’ rather than policy objectives – things you intend to do to keep everyone safe. You wouldn’t necessarily have specific ‘policies’ to ‘prevent accidents etc.’ you would have arrangements. Risk assessment section process good but examples focus on office/premises base hazards. Training – seems to refer solely to external and e-leaning – omits internal. ‘health facilities’ slightly strange terminology. Reference to ‘safety facilities’ slightly random – would the requirements for safety glass or toughened glazing be number 3 on anyone's checklist?
