Every new staff member undergoes initial staff training. They are issued with a Health and Safety manual: ‘Safe Systems at Work’. This document covers safe systems of work, chemicals and their use, COSHH, and general safety. Each staff member is also issued with a product guide detailing all the products they will use. Within twelve weeks of starting they will be assessed and re-trained if required. The staff member will then be required to sign a statement confirming that they have been re-assessed and this statement is monitored by the Health and Safety Director. We regard staff training as an ongoing process updated continuously.
