This course covers what you need to know about COSHH. It is aimed at anyone who is exposed to Substances Hazardous to Health at work, as well as line managers with responsibility for such people.

So what do we mean by ‘Substances Hazardous to Health’? In legal terms, these are substances that are classified as “very toxic, toxic, harmful, corrosive or Irritant” under the Classification, Labelling and Packaging Regulation (CLP). This regulation came into force in January 2009 dovetailing with a set of regulations called REACH.

REACH is a European Union regulation concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals, which came into force in June 2007. One of the main aims of REACH is to provide a high level of protection for human health and the environment from the use of chemicals.

The course is in ten modules, each of which are assessed. Pass all ten modules and you pass the course.

The modules are:

  • Introducing COSHH

  • Different Types of Hazard

  • Different Types of Exposure

  • Regulations and Approved Labelling

  • Assessing COSHH Risks

  • The Risk Assessment in Practice

  • Exposure Control

  • Staying in Control
