RoSPA Approved: Risk Assessment for Managers

Employers must carry out risk assessments in respect of all significant workplace hazards, and failure to comply with this legal requirement can result in prosecution and heavy penalties. Such prosecutions rarely arise from any wilful intention to break the law but rather through an ignorance of the legal requirements, or a lack of understanding of how to carry out the assessments, how detailed they should be and how they should be recorded.

Having completed this course the learner will feel competent and able to conduct risk assessments effectively and to appropriate standards.
