Managers’ Overview of Health and Safety

Although contractors aren’t employees of your organisation, employers still have many responsibilities when it comes to managing them. There is a lot of legislation relevant to managing contactors, e.g. Health and Safety at Work (1974) and COSHH regulations, and it’s important that managers within your company know and understand contractors’ rights.

This module provides an overview of relevant legislation concerning the management of contractors and explains the different responsibilities that managers, employees, and contractors all have when they come into work. Throughout the training course, learners will answer questions to assess their understanding and retention of the information.

Good managers lead by example, and health and safety issues are no exception! That’s why it’s essential that all managers are given the chance to learn what is required of them when it comes to health and safety issues and how to apply these regulations day-to-day.
