Training in health and safety is a requirement of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999. Managers and advisors who are appointed to assist management must be ‘suitably and sufficiently trained’ to carry out their role.

It provides valuable underpinning core knowledge for NVQ Level 3 and is seen by many employers as an essential and important base level qualification in Health and Safety.
