This course has been designed to help raise awareness of Legionnaires' disease by explaining how outbreaks might occur, and highlighting water systems that have a potentially high risk of developing the Legionella bacterium. You may have heard about Legionnaires' disease or the Legionella bacterium, and it’s not something anyone wants to experience first-hand. On average there are approximately 200 to 250 reported cases of Legionnaires' disease each year in the UK, although many believe this total is generally underestimated. Contracting 'Legionella pneumophilia' bacteria can cause high fever and may become fatal in approximately 12% of cases. To prevent people from developing this disease, we need to know what it is and how to prevent it coming into contact with us. This legionella training module explains how outbreaks might occur, including how to identify which water systems have a potentially high risk of developing the Legionnella bacterium. -
Employers are legally required to provide information, instruction and training to employees about fire precautions in the workplace. This online fire safety course helps you to meet this obligation by providing your staff with the knowledge and understanding required to act safely in the event of a fire in the workplace. On completion of the course and test you will receive a digital Fire Safety certificate which you can download and keep for your records. Fires can quickly cause a lot of damage and endanger people’s lives. History is littered with tragedies as a result of uncontrolled fires, so knowing how to prevent a fire from happening is essential. When a fire does break out, we all want to know how to act safely too. Fire is the probably the biggest risk to life that most people face at work, with around 50 people being killed and over 2000 seriously injured every year. To minimise the risk of fire in the workplace, it is vital that everyone is aware of the common causes of fire and the appropriate actions to take in the event of a fire, including how to escape safely from the scene.
