Everyone who works for you needs to know how to work safely and without risks to health. You must provide clear instructions, information and adequate training for your employees.
Consider how much training is necessary. A proportionate approach is needed, for example a low-risk business would not need lengthy technical training. Providing simple information or instructions is likely to be sufficient.
Don’t forget contractors and self-employed people who may be working for you and make sure everyone has the right level of information on:
- hazards and risks they may face, if any
- measures in place to deal with those hazards and risks, if necessary
- how to follow any emergency procedures
- When you provide training, ask your employees what they think about it to make sure it’s relevant and effective
- Keeping training records will help you to identify when refresher training might be needed
The information and training you provide should be in a form that is easy to understand. Everyone working for you should know what they are expected to do.
