£10 +VAT

THE BASICS.

The Slips Trips and Falls at Work course has been designed to increase workers awareness of the many hazards that exist in most workplaces and the actions required to reduce the risk of injury.  The course will help individuals in all work settings to recognise, and control slip, trip and fall hazards.

Slips trips and falls are a major cause of injuries and deaths in the workplace and must therefore be considered a high priority in any worker safety plan.

This entirely online course may also be used as part of a school, college or other educational program.

COURSE DURATION.

The estimated duration of this course is 1.5 hours. Candidates may log in and out of the system and therefore do not need to complete the course in a single sitting. Learner course progress is automatically saved, so that they may return to the course whenever they wish and as a result course completion is entirely in the hands of the learner.

COURSE ACCESS.

Learners receive 90 days access to the course materials from the date of registration, therefore the course can be completed straightaway or at ones leisure.  Learners receive individual login details and can access the course using any device, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.  This provides learners with the flexibility to train on the go, whenever and wherever they wish and as a result provides a more economical training option for businesses small and large.

Candidates who are registered by their manger using the GROUP option will receive 90 days course access from the date an account is assigned to them, therefore allowing businesses to purchase multiple user accounts, safe in the knowledge that they will not expire until they are assigned to learners.

Course access ceases immediately following a successful final exam submission, thereafter course materials can not be viewed.

WHO REQUIRES THIS COURSE.

The Slip, Trip and Falls at Work course has been designed at entry level for employees with little or no knowledge of slips, trips and falls.  It is therefore ideal for induction and refresher training.  Furthermore the opportunity for learners to gain an instant achievement certificate is highly motivating.

COURSE CONTENT.

Consists of 3 core units, concluded by a final exam:

UNIT 1 – THE LAW.
UNIT 2 – THE CAUSE.
UNIT 3 – PREVENTION.

Each unit consists of topics and interim quizzes which must be completed prior to progress.  At each stage learners must click a ‘MARK COMPLETE’ button to progress. This serves as a means by which course progress can be tracked and is particularly useful in situations where learners are enrolled by a manager.

The use of clearly defined Units and Topics, provides candidates with a structured framework which allows them to set achievement targets as they progress through the course.  Each section of the course is marked with a green check following completion, which allows learners to leave and then easily recommence training.

COURSE AIMS.

By the end of the course candidates will be able to:

• Recognise slip, trip and fall hazards in the workplace.
• Assess the risks.
• Understand control measures for slips, trips and falls.
• Understand employer and employee responsibilities.

Achievement of these course aims will provide learners and their employers with a degree of confidence that safety levels in the particular work environment have been enhanced.  Additionally the receipt of an approved certificate will serve as a recognition of learner achievement and also provide proof if necessary of regulatory compliance.
