Health and Safety Officer training provides a comprehensive introduction to managing workplace health, safety, and welfare across a wide range of working environments. This course is designed to build strong foundational knowledge for understanding how safety systems operate in practice and how risks can be identified, controlled, and reviewed effectively.

The course explores the responsibilities involved in promoting a positive safety culture, supporting employees, and contributing to safer working conditions. Learners gain insight into workplace inspections, incident reporting procedures, and the importance of structured investigations following accidents or near misses. The programme also addresses physical, environmental, and psychological factors that influence occupational safety, helping learners understand how management commitment and planning affect real-world outcomes.

Practical awareness is a key focus throughout. The course covers essential topics such as hazard identification, manual handling, electrical and gas safety, fire safety, working at height, workplace transport, and the use of safety signs and signals. Learners also develop an understanding of first aid provision at work and how different working environments — including offices, workshops, and catering operations — require tailored safety approaches.

This is a knowledge-based course intended to support professional development and safety awareness. It does not grant statutory authority or replace formal workplace certification, but it equips learners with the understanding needed to contribute responsibly to health and safety management within organisations.

On successful completion, learners will receive a free course completion certificate. For those who require enhanced documentation, multiple premium certificate and transcript options are available to purchase. Learners also benefit from 5-star rated student support available 24/7 via email, ensuring help and guidance whenever needed.
