Level 2 Award in COSHH Risk Assessment (QCF)

The Level 2 Award in Risk Assessment course is assessed by means of an online examination task. This relates directly to the delegate’s

workplace and tests the application of learning in a practical context.

The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 require employers to control exposure to hazardous substances to prevent ill

health.

Our Level 2 Award in COSHH Risk Assessment course is delivered over one day and aims to provide supervisors and employees with the

knowledge of the COSHH risk assessment process as well as the skills required to undertake a suitable and sufficient risk assessment.

On completion of the course, delegates will:

•

Understand the importance of COSHH risk assessments

•

Know the main types of hazardous substance and how they may cause harm

•

Understand the principles of controlling the risks from hazardous substances

•

Understand how a COSHH risk assessment is undertaken.

The Level 2 Award in COSHH Risk Assessment is a stand-alone qualification. It however allows for lateral progression to other British Safety

Council Level 2 qualifications covering risk assessments in DSE, Fire and Manual Handling, as well as vertical progression to the Level 3

Certificate in Occupational Safety and Health.

Learning with the British Safety Council will enable delegates to benefit from our extensive experience in health, safety and environmental

management, acquired over the last 60 years. During this time, we’ve educated people from all over the world and have developed expert

tuition methods, using the most modern teaching techniques.
