Telford Safety Consultants is a leading consultancy service and accredited training provider of the Safety, Health and Environment for Construction Workers Course.
Consider the shocking fact that 60,000 people die on construction sites every year and there are 475 work-related accidents a minute. Hardly surprising, then, that accidents, illness and deaths cost business over £2 trillion annually.
The course is suitable for any geographical location and for any size of organisation and provides the core knowledge your workers need to stay safe and embeds the good understanding and techniques needed to keep others safe too.
We have ensured that the practical, jargon-free nature of the course will meet the needs of every learner.
