A practical foundation course for the workforce

IOSH Working Safely provides a clear, practical introduction to working safely. It is ideal for building consistent standards across teams, including contractors and new starters.

This is not a “poster course”. It is about recognising hazards, following sensible controls, and understanding why standards exist.

What the course covers

Learners will understand:

• Why health and safety matters in day to day work
• Common hazards and what good control looks like
• Personal responsibility and safe behaviour at work
• Risk basics, including reporting and escalation when things are not right

How we deliver it

We keep it simple and practical:

• Real examples and plain English explanations
• Clear links to what people actually do at work
• Focus on behaviours and controls that prevent harm

Who it is for

Suitable for employees at all levels, including new starters, temporary workers, and contractors who need a consistent baseline.

Outcomes

Learners leave with improved hazard awareness, clearer expectations, and a better understanding of what “working safely” means in practice.
