About course

Every year in the UK, over 600,000 workplace injuries and 1.8 million cases of work-related illnesses are reported, yet many are preventable. Does your workplace identify and control a safety risk before it becomes a serious incident? Every year, workplace accidents, hazardous substances and poor safety practices lead to injuries, lost productivity and costly disruptions. Our Health and Safety Officer Training helps you build the knowledge needed to promote safer working environments and support workplace compliance.

This CPD-certified course provides a practical introduction to the responsibilities of a Health and Safety Officer. You’ll explore workplace hazards, emergency procedures, hazardous substances, minor injury response, incident reporting and the skills required to develop a positive safety culture across different working environments.

Whether you work in an office, warehouse, construction site, healthcare setting or industrial workplace, this training helps you recognise risks, communicate safety procedures confidently and support safer day-to-day operations. You’ll also learn how to identify hazardous substances, interpret Safety Data Sheets (SDS), respond appropriately to workplace incidents and coordinate effectively during emergencies.

Developed to reflect current UK workplace health and safety principles, the course supports recognised legislation and guidance, including the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, and COSHH Regulations 2002, helping strengthen workplace compliance and professional confidence.

With Training Excellence study online at your own pace with flexible 24/7 access and dedicated learner support.
