As a CITB Approved Training Organisation (ATO), Boss Training is proud to offer the highly informative CITB health and safety Awareness training course, which follows a clearly outlined syllabus. Alongside this course, we also offer SMSTS courses, SSSTS courses as well as refresher courses for both.
Employees who are not used to, or unfamiliar with health and safety regulations will benefit from CITB Health & Safety Awareness Training. It’s also worth noting that employees who understand health and safety well, but don’t have a nationally recognised certificate will benefit from completing this course. Typically, this course is attended by those who are currently or about to be employed in the construction or civil engineering industry.
This course is designed to give your employees a working knowledge of health and safety in the workplace and covers the fundamentals of the topic. The course highlights the importance of health and safety in the workplace to ensure your own safety and those around you. As well as general workplace health and safety, fire safety, working at height and manual handling topics are also covered.
