Who is IOSH Working Safely for?

IOSH Working Safely is designed for people at any level of an organisation who need a practical understanding of workplace health and safety.

It does not require learners to be managers, supervisors or health and safety professionals.

Suitable for employees including:

  • production and manufacturing employees;
  • warehouse and logistics teams;
  • office and administration staff;
  • retail and hospitality employees;
  • site and operational workers;
  • new employees and apprentices;
  • remote and multi-site teams; and
  • employees who would benefit from recognised health and safety awareness training.

For organisations

Working Safely can provide a useful common foundation where an employer wants employees across different roles or locations to understand hazards, risk and their contribution to workplace safety.

Because the course is online, employees can complete the training individually without the organisation having to coordinate a classroom training day.


What does IOSH Working Safely cover?

The course introduces the fundamental principles employees need to understand to work safely and contribute positively to workplace health and safety.

  • understanding hazards and risks;
  • recognising common workplace hazards;
  • understanding how risks are controlled;
  • workplace injuries and work-related ill health;
  • individual health and safety responsibilities;
  • reporting incidents and unsafe conditions;
  • how organisations learn from incidents;
  • improving workplace safety performance;
  • the effect of individual behaviour on safety; and
  • practical application of health and safety awareness at work.

IOSH Working Safely or IOSH Managing Safely?

The two courses are aimed at different roles within an organisation.

IOSH Working Safely®

Designed for employees at all levels.

It focuses on practical awareness of workplace hazards, risk and the contribution every employee makes to health and safety.

IOSH Managing Safely®

Designed primarily for managers, supervisors and team leaders.

It provides a broader understanding of managing workplace risk, responsibilities, incidents and safety performance.

If the learner manages people or has responsibility for workplace risks, IOSH Managing Safely may be the more appropriate option.


Why choose online IOSH Working Safely?

Flexible learning

Employees can complete the training around work commitments without travelling to a classroom course.

Recognised training

Successful learners receive an official IOSH Working Safely® Digital Certificate.

Suitable for larger workforces

Online delivery makes the course practical for organisations with employees working across different shifts, sites or locations.


Buying IOSH Working Safely for several employees?

Organisations can purchase Working Safely training for multiple employees rather than buying each learner individually through the website.

If you need several licences, contact The Hive Collaborative with your learner numbers and purchasing requirements.

We can support business customers using their normal purchasing arrangements, including purchase orders and invoicing where required, subject to agreed terms.
