This course provides the NASUWT Health and Safety Representative with the relevant knowledge and skills to tackle the physical, environmental and organisational factors which have a detrimental effect on the health and wellbeing of members. Participants also gain an understanding of the legal duties of employers, managers and employees in respect of health and safety.
