Our COSHH in the Food Industry training course will give the learner knowledge of the COSHH rules and how to produce an assessment for a relatively small business.
COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) covers those substances, many of which are readily available in every workplace, which either over time, or in the short term, cause a hazard to workers. In the food industry, there are many substances which are potentially hazardous, from strong chemical cleaners and degreasers, to natural substances like vinegar or the sap from vegetables and flowers which over time can cause asthma, allergic reactions or dermatitis through skin contact.
This course is for anyone who may come into contact with harmful substances at work.
