Risk Assessment for Childcarers© From £69.00 + £30 certification

4 hour course plus 3 hour study time.
Nationally recognised certificate. Valid indefinitely.

This certificate is part one of the Level 2 CIEH Health & Safety training.

National Standards for Day Care Standard 6 Safety 6.2 The nominated person conducts a risk assessment of the premises. This must be reviewed with an action plan and timescale to reduce risks.

If the OFSTED Inspector walked into your premises today how would you react? Would your heart race? Your mouth goes dry? Panic set in, and your head start to ache?

Under the Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations, you must carry out risk assessment. If you employ 5 or more people, this must include a written assessment. Inadequate regard for health, safety and risk assessment can substantially increase your costs. This course outlines the what your OFSTED/Early Years Inspector looks for and highlights ways to improve your safety and safety records.

Now is the time to make sure your staff know how to carry out and record risk assessments confidently, as this will reduce potential accidents and hidden costs. Imagine being within the top ten best companies in your field, with an unblemished health and safety record. This programme will help you reach that goal and you will receive a nationally recognised certificate upon successful completion.

You'll learn all about:

• National Standards - Standard 6
• Why it is needed.
• Costs - effect of lost days on both business and community.
• Health and Safety management.
• What is needed in a risk assessment and assist in one.
• Purpose of a risk assessment.
• Who-What-How-When.
• How to find out if there is a risk:
  • Identification
  • Evaluate the risk
  • Record your findings
  • Record your assessment

Delegates will also be required to complete a 'Candidate Assessment Record' based on their own work place or work activities, therefore this assessment will be completed in their own time and must be returned to Optimum Training Limited for certification.

And when that OFSTED Inspector comes in, you'll be smiling and they'll leave happy. Implementing what you learn from this course will guarantee that!
