Risk Assessment in the Workplace training is an eLearning course designed for anyone who undertakes risk assessments as well as those who are responsible for the safety of others.

By completing the online training learners will understand different types of hazards, how to evaluate risks and how to implement control measures.

We all want to be safe at work, yet thousands of accidents happen every year. That has a big impact on the individuals affected, as well as the productivity of businesses that lose time and money when an accident occurs. Therefore, preventing accidents is essential.
