RSPH Level 1 Award in Health and Safety in the Workplace
The RSPH (Royal Society for Public Health) new Level 1 Award in Health and Safety in the Workplace replaces the Level 1 Award in Hazard Awareness.
This Level 1 qualification is designed to provide candidates with a basic knowledge relating to health, safety and welfare in the workplace.
The emphasis is on making the individual safe for him/herself, safe for others and capable of identifying potential hazards.
"Health and Safety" takes as its starting point the fact that most accidents are attributable to a lack of knowledge or carelessness and that the key to improvement is increased awareness on everybody's part.
The qualification is suitable for everyone about to enter employment or who has just started work, and is also applicable to young people as part of their preparation for work experience.
