Bespoke, Compliant, Affordable Training

 Information, instruction and training for asbestos awareness is intended to give workers and supervisors the information they need to avoid work that may disturb asbestos during any normal work which could disturb the fabric of a building, or other item which might contain asbestos. It will not prepare workers, or self-employed contractors, to carry out work with asbestos-containing materials. If a worker is planning to carry out work that will disturb ACMs, further information, instruction and training will be needed.

Examples of those affected are listed below. There will be other occupations where asbestos may be disturbed in addition to those listed.:

• General maintenance workers
• Electricians
• Plumbers
• Joiners
• Painters and decorators
• Plasterers
• Construction workers
• Roofers
• Shop fitters
• Gas fitters
• Heating and ventilation engineers
• Demolition workers
• Telecommunication engineers
• Fire/burglar alarm installers
• Computer and data installers
• Architects
• Building surveyors

 You need to train all existing and any new staff when they start work and tell all employees about any new fire risks; this is a legal requirement by law. This is called fire awareness training and All In Safety offer a service to create a simple, short bespoke training material that you can use to train in-house this can be added to your fire risk assessment from us).

Within any commercial setting, certain members of staff may need to be trained in more detailed fire safety procedures – becoming designated fire wardens as a result. The person trained should have a clear understanding of the overall duties and responsibilities they have as a fire warden. This will include: what action they should take on the discovery of a fire, know the difference between different fire classes, which extinguisher to use for which fire and what the evacuation procedure is amongst others.

In particular not just large commercial premises, but also those in the hospitality, eventing and security industry, fire warden training is recommended. Members of the public will look to your staff in emergency to assist them and know what to do. We have vast experience of working in these environments such as:

· Bars

· Restaurants

· Nightclubs

· Festivals

· Sports Stadia

· Theatres

· Concerts

· Security & Stewarding Companies

· Museums/Art Galleries

This is a very popular service for construction clients where we combine 4 core courses into just one full day of training.

This can be done on your site, bespoke to your company's needs and are fully certificated.

The most popular to include are:

1. Asbestos Awareness
2. Manual Handling
3. COSHH
4. Working at Heights

The cost can be as little as £45 per delegate for all courses inclusive (based on a 12 person course).

 According to the HSE, "Training can be important in raising awareness and reducing risk, but it won’t ensure safe manual handling on its own. You should first design the manual handling operations to be as safe as reasonably practicable. You should also monitor and review procedures to make sure workers understand and apply them.
Training should be relevant to the type of work carried out and should cover:

• manual handling risk factors and how injuries can happen
• how to use mechanical aids
• how to carry out safe manual handling, including good manual handling techniques
• systems of work relevant to the worker’s tasks and environment
• practical work so the trainer can identify anything the trainee is not doing safely and put it right

The content of any training in good handling technique should be tailored to the tasks the workers carry out."
At All In Safety, because our courses are bespoke rather than generic, we comply with this advice. And why not enquire about combining the training with a Manual Handling Assessment of your workplace to fully comply ? 

What do I need to do to comply with the Work at Height Regulations 2005?

The HSE states that:

"The Regulations apply to all work at height, where there is risk of a fall liable to cause personal injury. They place duties on employers, and those who control any work at height activity (such as facilities managers or building owners who may contract others to work at height).

As part of the Regulations, you must ensure:

• all work at height is properly planned and organised
• those involved in work at height are competent
• the risks from work at height are assessed, and appropriate work equipment is selected and used
• the risks of working on or near fragile surfaces are properly managed
• the equipment used for work at height is properly inspected and maintained.

You should make sure that people with sufficient skills, knowledge and experience are employed to perform the task, or, if they are being trained, that they work under the supervision of somebody competent to do it."

Our training is designed to be compliant with the hSE guidelines above and bespoke to your activities. 

All persons operating "abrasive wheels" must know how to use them properly and safely. Grinders, drill pedestals, sanders etc. all come under this category, and although not having it's own regulations it comes under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER) 1998, and is still required as an Abrasive Wheel certification.

All In Safety have delivered this training to many industries and clients, and cover all aspects necessary to be complaint.

.

Again, this training is designed to demonstrate the health and safety aspects of operating abrasive wheels.

Work environment too noisy ? 

Staff have to wear earplugs or ear defenders ?

Then as well as providing your correct PPE you have a duty under the Noise at Work Regulations 2005 to ensure your staff are aware of the risks and how to use their PPE correctly.

The most import part of compliance is undertaking a Noise Risk Assessment. All In Safety can do this for you as well, and combine it with the training.

DID YOU KNOW:

It is just as important to make sure that you don't over-rate your hearing protection as it is to under-rate. Our bespoke hearing risk assessments use the HSE calculations in an easy to use and easy to read format.

All In Safety offer company/environment specific training on site to ensure that Regulation 12 of the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 are adhered to. We take time to analyse the specific requirements under the Regulations to ensure non-duplicity but compliance.

As with all of our training, these can be combined with other courses and because they are company/environment specific reduce training time.

Spillages come in all forms of the workplace and as an employer your risk of liability is not just with safety of your employees, but avoiding damaging the environment, which can lead to very heavy fines. These fines are arbitrarily set by the judicial system and are linked to your turnover.

CASE STUDY: A previous blue-chip customer had a leak of air conditioning liquid. they had a spill kit on site but it was the incorrect type. No staff were trained in spill response. This resulted in £140,000 fine to the environment agency. So not only is knowledge required for the correct kit to get, staff need training in it's usage.

Our training was completed in conjunction with a former fire officer who had worked  in this particular field. We would recommend that you ask us to assess what type of kit(s) you need (this alone could save you money in getting the correct numbers and type) for a nominal fee.
