COSHH & PPE
CITB have introduced a new initiative called the Employer Network simplifying the way levy paying employers can access funding for training support. Training can be undertaken in anything that supports construction employees and can be online or in person. The scheme has reduced time consuming applications and can result in significant savings for the employer, with 70% of course fees being paid directly by CITB.

Course:
COSHH Regulations have been in place for over 30 years but some businesses still find implementing effective controls a challenge. Past exposure to substances hazardous to health have left many retired workers with debilitating illness and for some, a premature death. Effective control measures, including the correct selection and use of PPE, will prevent this happening in the future
The course is designed to learn and develop understanding about hazards and risks associated with using and handling substances classified as hazardous to health. How control measures will reduce risk of exposure. What part PPE plays in achieving control.
