Health and Safety Training and First Aid Courses London

Health and Safety training

Training in health and safety is an important part of implementing any strategy. At RB Health and Safety Solutions we aim to ensure that this does not become a burden, to achieve this we ensure that our courses suit the clients needs whilst making them fun and interactive. Your course could range from basic level 1 to advanced specialist areas of health and safety, whichever level of training you require for your staff we will ensure that the following is adhered to:

• Courses tailored to suit your needs (using our specialist chartered consultants we will tailor the course to suit the individual needs of your organisation, from entertainment and theatres to construction sites, we will tailor to your industry);
• Fun and interactive training. Whilst health and safety can have a reputation of being dry and boring, we aim to ensure that this perception is proven wrong during our courses. Tutors use the most up to date teaching techniques and resources to ensure that the students are involved and enjoying the learning experience.

Fire Extinguisher Servicing

Fire extinguishers should be tested annually by a competent person to ensure that they work as required (as stated by British Standards). To do this effectively our engineers will ensure that each extinguisher is given the time and attention required, as one day this could be your life saving piece of equipment. As part of the annual service our BAFE registered engineers will carry out a full check and replace any parts which are found to be faulty, then once every 5 years (10yrs for co2) we will carry out a discharge test, where the engineer will fully empty the extinguisher and re-fill ensuring that all parts are replaced. To ensure that there is as little burden on you as possible we will contact you before the service dates are due, keep a record of which type of tests are to be carried out and carry out the servicing at a time best suited to you.

First Aid Training

Do you know what the law requires in relation to first aid in the workplace? Are you familiar with the Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulation 1981? How many first aiders are you required to have?

All these questions can be answered by one simple phone call to RB Health and Safety Solutions Ltd. As part of our service when providing quality first aid training courses, we will advise our clients on their duties to provide first aiders and which type of course best suits their needs.

When searching for a training provider always ensure that they hold HSE accreditation, this will ensure that they are able to deliver the quality of training required by the regulations. Courses in first aid can range from 3 day first aid at work to 1 day emergency first aid. When delivering these courses RB's will ensure that they are tailored to suit the industry in which you are working by identifying the major risks associated with your work and planning practical exercises based around these.

Fire Risk Assessment

What is it all about?

Fire risk assessments have become more important since the introduction of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. All businesses and landlords are required to carry out a fire risk assessment at their premises, ensuring that this assessment complies with the relevant legislation. To ensure that this is carried out sufficiently RB Health and Safety Solutions Ltd will conduct a full assessment carried out by one of our consultants, this assessment will result in a formal report detailing any actions which need to be completed in order to be fully compliant with the legislation.

Our consultants are retired senior officers from the fire and rescue service, these consultants have practical knowledge on how the legislation is enforced and will therefore be in a position to offer realistic, practical advise.

What is included in a fire risk assessment? This document will cover all areas identified within the Regulatory reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, such as:

• Hazard identification;
• Assessment of those at risk;
• Evaluation of the risk;
• Methods of control;
• Further controls.
