About course
In the last five years, half of all construction sector deaths involved a fall from height. These risks are well known, yet they are missed during planning or supervision. So, spotting and controlling hazards early is what keeps every worker safe. This is why our CPD-accredited Construction Safety Training online helps you understand the risks, follow UK law and lead safer sites.
Our online construction health and safety course is ideal for site supervisors, site managers and health and safety officers. It also suits construction workers, apprentices and contractors who need to understand their legal duties. Throughout this construction safety training, you learn how law, planning and everyday site controls work together to prevent harm.
You begin by understanding your legal duties under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and CDM 2015. With those duties clear, the course turns to the hazards that cause the most harm. These include working at height, electrical safety, gas and fire risks. You then learn how to plan safe lifting, choose the right PPE and keep site welfare to a good standard. Finally, it covers accident reporting under RIDDOR, waste management and mental health on site.
Safe sites are built on sound decisions. Employers value people who spot hazards early, enforce controls and know when to stop work. This construction safety training gives you the knowledge behind those decisions.
