Health and Safety 4 U - Available March 07

You have been asking us for years to bring out a Health and Safety video to match the food safety options. Launching March 07 Health and Safety 4U is our new interactive DVD and will not only cover all the main areas of health and safety but will also have an option to test the delegate’s knowledge. The DVD is based upon the new Health and Safety handbook and will be ideal for use on the one-day Level 2 course or as an introduction for supervisor courses. The DVD is fun and uses easy-to-understand scenarios to teach topics that are perceived to be complicated. For example, risk assessment is far easier to understand when you base it on cooking your breakfast.
