Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH)
COSHH Importance
COSHH training ensures that your business complies with the legal requirements of the COSHH Regulations 2002. It helps reduce workplace accidents and illnesses caused by hazardous substances, which in turn minimises downtime, enhances productivity, and avoids costly fines or litigation.

Employs need to provide staff information, instruction and training about the risks, steps and precautions the employer has taken to control these risks, eg provision of appropriate rubber gloves or appropriate eye protection.
