Frequently Asked Questions

  • Under the Manual Handling Operations Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1992, employers must avoid the need for hazardous manual handling where possible. Where it cannot be avoided, you must assess the risks and provide staff with appropriate training. Our CIEH-approved Manual Handling Awareness course ensures your organisation is compliant and helps reduce workplace injuries and insurance claims.

  • COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) training is essential for any employee who works with or around hazardous substances. This isn't limited to industrial chemicals; it includes cleaning products, dust, fumes, and certain biological agents. Our course ensures staff can identify hazard symbols, understand safety data sheets, and use required PPE correctly.

  • If your employees have to raise their voices to be heard by someone just two metres away, you likely need a formal assessment. The Control of Noise at Work Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2006 requires employers to prevent or reduce risks to health and safety from exposure to noise. We provide professional monitoring across NI to ensure you stay within legal decibel limits.

  • While modern AEDs are designed to be used by anyone, AED Defibrillator Training is highly recommended by the HSENI. Training gives your staff the confidence to act quickly in a cardiac emergency, ensuring the equipment is used effectively and safely alongside standard CPR procedures.

  • This training is for staff who may need to work in areas such as tanks, silos, or unventilated rooms where there is a risk of oxygen depletion or toxic fumes. Our course covers risk assessment, emergency exit procedures, and the legal requirements of the Confined Spaces Regulations (Northern Ireland).
