Because they are the most common cause of injury at work and cause approximately 40% of all reported injuries. The cost of slips, trips and falls accidents to UK businesses and the wider economy is estimated to be £800 million per year.
This online course would fall into the category of a General Health and Safety Training course that Safety trainers would find useful to train relevant staff and employees as part of an overall Health and Safety training programme. This course meets the training requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. It also meets the requirements of CHAS, SafeContractor, Construction line, Exor and other SSIP registrations plus HSE safety training requirements.
This online course will provide delegates with an understanding of the main causes of slips, trips and falls and ways to minimise and control the risks. The course also provides details of the various health and safety laws and regulations that impose a duty on both employees and employers to manage the risks associated with slips, trips and falls.
After completing the course, candidates will:
Be aware of the dangers of slips, trips and falls;
Have knowledge of the legal and regulatory framework that underpins slips, trips and falls risk management and control;
Be aware of the causes, and the measures required to prevent, slips, trips and falls.
The course comprises 1 interactive module and a final assessment. Links to recommended reading and additional resources may be provided within the training modules. These links are not mandatory and will not be tested for in the final assessment.
Duration
It takes approximately 30 minutes to complete the course in full. This can be spread out over multiple sessions or completed in a single session. There is no time limit for completion.
Assessment
All candidates must complete a multiple choice assessment after working through the training material. The candidate will be asked 12 multiple choice questions, randomly chosen from a larger question pool, and need to answer a minimum of 9 correctly to pass. Candidates will be given instant feedback after completing the assessment stating whether they have passed or failed. The assessment can be re-taken as many times as is required to pass at no additional cost.
Successful candidates will receive a RoSPA Assured/CPD Certificate and 0.5 CPD Credits.
The Slips, trips and falls training awareness certificate has no expiry date because there is no formally recognised period of validity for any health and safety training. The HSE recommends refresher training is carried out whenever it is felt necessary. Safety registration bodies such as CHAS, SafeContractor, ConstructionLine & SMAS and other members of the SSiP scheme recommend most re-training is done every 3 years.

Quality Management Systems Ltd (QMS) made this prestigious award to Commodious in January 2018.
