  What is COSHH? <\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n

  COSHH is the law that requires employers to control substances that are hazardous to health. You can prevent or reduce workers exposure to hazardous substances by:<\/p>\r\n\r\n

  \r\n\t
  • finding out what the health hazards are<\/li>\r\n\t
  • deciding how to prevent harm to health (risk assessment)<\/li>\r\n\t
  • providing control measures to reduce harm to health<\/li>\r\n\t
  • making sure they are used<\/li>\r\n\t
  • keeping all control measures in good working order<\/li>\r\n\t
  • providing information, instruction and training for employees and others<\/li>\r\n\t
  • providing monitoring and health surveillance in appropriate cases<\/li>\r\n\t
  • planning for emergencies<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n

    Most businesses use substances, or products that are mixtures of substances. Some processes create substances. These could cause harm to employees, contractors and other people.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    Sometimes substances are easily recognised as harmful. Common substances such as paint, bleach or dust from natural materials may also be harmful.<\/p>","hidden_content":"","download":"\/control-of-substances-hazardous-to-health-coshh-v1-aug20.pdf","seo_title":"Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (COSHH) Training Course","meta_description":"ESS-delivered half-day course.

    Face Fit Train the Tester Course Overview<\/h2>\r\n\r\n

    INDG 479 recommends that RPE Fit Testing should only be conducted by a trained and competent person. To be competent, the fit test operator should have adequate knowledge and have received adequate instruction and training.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    Recent research indicates that up to 50% of all RPE used does not offer the wearer the level of protection assumed and one of the major reasons is that it simply does not fit!   Yet, under the regulations RPE must be correctly selected and this includes, for many types of RPE, a face piece Fit Test conducted by a trained and competent person.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    Why perform a fit test?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n

    If you provide respiratory protective equipment (RPE) to your employees then it is essential that you have documentary evidence to show the RPE fits the wearer. By subjecting each wearer to a face-fit test you can be sure that your organisation is fulfilling the requirements laid out in the Health & Safety Executives (HSE) guidance notes INDG 479 & HSG53,<\/p>\r\n\r\n
