Level 2 Award in Risk Assessment (QCF)

The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 require every employer and self-employed person to make a suitable and

sufficient assessment of the health and safety risks to employees and others not in their employment in order to put in place appropriate

control measures.

Our Level 2 Award in Risk Assessment course is delivered in one day and provides delegates with a solid understanding of the risk assessment

process, in addition to the skills required to undertake a suitable and sufficient risk assessment.

On completion of the course, delegates will:

•

Understand the importance of risk assessments

•

Understand the principles of controlling risks

•

Understand how a risk assessment is undertaken.

While the Level 2 Award in Risk Assessment is a stand-alone qualification, it allows for lateral progression to other British Safety Council Level 2

qualifications covering specific risk assessments in COSHH, DSE, Fire and Manual Handling, and 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.

Assessment

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.
