This course offers practical guidance on proper hand hygiene practices, emphasising their crucial role in maintaining a healthy and hygienic workplace. Invisible to the naked eye, germs and bacteria are spread from person-to-person and by touching everyday surfaces. Learn effective techniques to reduce the transmission of pathogens and promote overall hygiene for everyone.
The ready2work HSE series is designed for all staff and will typically follow from the ready2start series. With a basic grounding from the associated courses in that range, we can now focus on specific hazards and more detail. Workers should complete these courses at the very start of their employment and most titles would need to be refreshed every one or two years based on workplace requirements to ensure they are updated with the latest protocols and practices.
