The construction industry is one of the most dangerous environments in which to work.
SMH T&SS’s Construction Health & Safety training courses are aimed at workers, management, planners and surveyors in the construction and civil engineering industries, providing routine, day to day guidance on health, safety and welfare within the construction work environment.
Trained by industry professionals, course attendees will learn about construction health and safety law, identification of at work and on site risks, assessment and management of those risks and understanding their personal H&S responsibilities.
Our Health & Safety courses for construction workers are held at either your own venue or at an external venue and are regularly held at a number of different venues across the UK.
