Is it right for me?
The Level 2 Award in Health and Safety aims to provide employees with health and safety understanding, which will enable them to contribute to any health and safety management system. In particular the programme will enable students to: work in a safe and healthy manner and contribute towards improving health and safety within an organisation's policy; identify key hazards in their own workplace; understand the importance of health and safety rules and working procedures; report potential health and safety problems; be responsible for their own actions. The course syllabus is generic in nature ' it sets out the principles of health and safety. We also endeavour to tailor the syllabus to the background of the student groups.
