This qualification is designed to provide candidates with a basic knowledge relating to health, safety and welfare in the workplace. The emphasis is on making the individual safe for themselves, safe for others and capable of identifying potential hazards.
Health and Safety takes as its starting point the fact that most accidents are attributable to a lack of knowledge or carelessness and that the key to improvement is increased awareness on everybody's part.
This qualification is regulated by Ofqual/CCEA and Qualification Wales.
