Course Benefits
Britain’s most dangerous occupation is construction work. The construction industry employs 2.2 million people and in the last 25 years, over 2,800 people have died from injuries they received as a result of construction work, with many more injured.
By law employers need to communicate key areas of building and construction safety to workers. This course is a great way to get that safety message across at the best price!
