The Health and Safety at Work etc. Act (HSWA) 1974 (Section 2) requires every employer to provide information, instruction, training and supervision necessary to ensure the health and safety at work of their employees and others affected by their activities.
The first and foremost mandatory training for any workforce is to do with health and safety. The Health and Safety First Aid Regulations 1981 state that employers will need to make sure that their first aid facilities, equipment and number of trained first aiders adequately and appropriately fits the workplace’s need.
We know that the cost of training can be prohibitive for small businesses, so the BID are offering a range of health & safety training courses over the year. Numbers are limited so please book early.
Upcoming Training 2023:
| Fire Safety | 14th September |

| Health & Safety | 14th November |
| Mental health first aid training | TBC |
All training is 9am – 1pm at The Exchange in Twickenham.
