Staying safe whilst at work involves many things, but being able to spot any potential hazards is certainly important. FACT health and safety training courses are ideal for this and will teach you not only how to identify hazards but also enable you to avoid them.

All companies in building and construction are now having to factor in how the work they carry out affects the environment around them. Health and safety training online from FACT helps because it teaches you how the work you do affects your surroundings. This then enables you to work in the most environmentally friendly way possible.
4 H&S Training Needed For CSCS & FISS CSCS Cards
One of the major benefits of a health and safety course for most is that they allow you to apply for a CSCS (Construction Skills Certification Scheme) or FISS CSCS (Fencing Industry Skills Scheme/Construction Skills Certification Scheme) card. Holding these cards is a real bonus and a requirement by many employers and construction sites, as they prove you have the right skills/training for the work you do. By completing a FACT training course in health and safety, you are eligible to apply for these cards.

The benefits of FACT health and safety training courses also extend to employers.
